SubjectPROBLEM: keyboard shift not registered under fast typing or auto-repeat
From
Date

Summary: Keyboard shift state not registered under fast typing or
autorepeat

If someone can help point me where to look at the code, I've already
looked into ./drivers/char/keyboard.c but didn't see anything obvious.
More specific help would be appreciated.

Kernel doesn't register shift state when typing quickly. Example, 'ls
*' shows up as 'ls 8' when typed fast. Also, holding '-' key down, once
it's repeating, shift key makes no difference. Interesting info:
keyboard delay settings of 500/30 allowed me to press shift key soon
(8-10 chars) into the repeat and have it change to '_', while delay
settings of 250/30 shortened that to the delay between the first and
second character.

Holding shift key down first, allows the repeating '_' character to
change to '-', but thereafter stays '-' regardless of shift state.

NB: This is not necessarily related to XFree86 at all. I logged in on
console, behaviour is mostly identical with one caveat. When starting
with '-', pressing the shift key before the repeating starts shows the
next 2 '-' but stops the repeat. Pressing shift after it's started
repeating does nothing. Otherwise, behaviour is identical


Kernel version: Linux version 2.6.0-test4 (gcc version 3.2.2 20030222
(RedHat Linux 3.2.2-5)
Also on kernel versions 2.4.20 (RedHat 9)) and 2.4.21 stock and 2.4.21
patched with acpi/laptop patches

No OOPS

No example scripts

Special note, this is a Compaq Presario X1000 Laptop.
