Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.22.2.1-2
Severity: important
Keyboard accessibility feature of sticky key turns off sometimes even when "Disable sticky keys if two keys are pressed together" is not selected. This can be reproduced on any terminal most of the times. I use RXVT. Way to reproduce:
- Enable Assistive technologies and on 'keyboard preference' turn on the sticky keys.
- Dont select - 'disable sticky keys if two keys are pressed'
- On the terminal press Ctrl key more than twice.
- Sticky key stops working
- On 'keyboard preference', sticky keys are shown as disabled.
While experimenting more I pressed Ctrl key more than 6-7times consecutively and after this terminal stops taking any key input at all.
thanks,
dj
