I just tested that, and I can confirm the same regression on intrepid. Since you, Daniel Hollocher, and I can confirm the left/down arrow regression on intrepid when we use the patched evdev packages, we should probably let go of intrepid and focus on jaunty, since both Daniel and I cannot reproduce this regression on jaunty when using the patched evdev packages.
I believe that the left/down regression was fixed somewhere in between intrepid and jaunty's xserver, since, when I cherry-picked the latest jaunty xserver packages onto my intrepid box, the regression was not present, even when using my patched evdev package. (Note that cherry picking packages, in general, is a risky idea in terms of overall stability, and I've since reverted the xserver packages on my intrepid box to the intrepid versions, but doing it can be useful for experiments like this.) I will leave the intrepid evdev packages in my ppa anyways, in case someone wants to still play around with them, but I don't advise using them, and it's too late for any fix like this to appear in intrepid anyways, whereas at least the chance for this fix to appear in jaunty is nonzero. And since jaunty thus far has *not* been shown to be affected by the left/down arrow regression, this is why we still need more testers for the ppa package in jaunty. As an aside, I also tested evdev-2.2.0 (a much newer version of the evdev in jaunty) on my jaunty box. I won't put it in my ppa, but it automatically reflects the patch for the repeat bug that I used to patch the package in my ppa archive. Like we would expect, I also tested it to solve repeat bug. So, if we cannot patch jaunty's evdev package to include the fix, the good news is that the first ubuntu version (likely jaunty+1) to use evdev-2.2.0 or greater will get this fix for free. -- [intrepid] keyboard Repeat Keys is failing to adjust https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
