Title: Focal (20.04): IR Remote Keys Repeat Many Times Starting with Kernel 5.8.0-49 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The bug reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1926030 affects Focal (20.04). I use an IR remote with the ir-keytable package. Everything was working fine until kernel 5.8.0-49 was automatically installed by Software Updater on Ubuntu 20.04.2. When any key is pressed on the remote, the key is repeated about 500 times. The kernel is now 5.8.0-50, and the problem persists. Other users on the MythTV mailing list are reporting the issue, and it appears that the problem is related to changes in the following files: drivers/media/rc/ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c drivers/media/rc/rc-main.c b/drivers/media/rc/rc-main.c drivers/media/rc/serial_ir.c It has been reported that reverting the ir-mce_kbd-decoder.c and rc- main.c files to the older versions fixes the problem. /proc/version_signature > version.log: Ubuntu 5.8.0-50.56~20.04.1-generic 5.8.18 lspci -vnvn: 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v6/7th Gen Core Processor Host Bridge/DRAM Registers [8086:590f] (rev 06) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
