It's been doing this ever since the input layer changes:
- open a few xterms - press the spacebar, leave pressed - start waggling the mouse about - stop pressing spacebar, keep waggling the mouse about, across the xterms
The keystrokes *never* stop coming. Just the continuous mouse activity causes a stream of keyboard input, at seemingly the normal autorepeat rate. I can keep them coming for 30 seconds, just by moving the mouse.
In practice, it's irritating because it's quite easy to get a stream of erroneous input dumped into the wrong windows.
It's a vanilla dual pentium with an AT keyboard and a PS/2 mouse. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
