I consider myself an experienced user and had a very hard time figuring out this. I have had this problem many times, and the only solution I figured out until now was to reboot.
The problem is "Slow Keys" are being enabled in GDM even though I'm long ago logged in, and that anti-feature should be controled by Gnome-Shell, not GDM once logged in. By the way: this bug and bug #41427 are very closely related. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/758335 Title: gdm ignores keyboard input because Slow Keys was secretly turned on To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/758335/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
