I'm sorry for flooding this thread, but I have more experience to share. After another reboot in "clocksource=jiffies" mode, I saw that 1 OS second passes in real 0.5 seconds. But the rest of the system was pretty stable. Keyboard auto-repeat was twice as fast, but did not get triggered inadvertently.
I did another reboot in "clocksource=jiffies" mode and opened the online clock application. Initially the clock speed seemed normal. After 20-30 seconds it became twice as fast. Then from the console, I started an application with an infinite loop therein. That made the clock seconds turn very very fast. Probably CPU speed has influence here. Good news is that when I changed the boot option to "clocksource=tsc", I got stable results even after a few reboots. Seconds seem to pass as fast as they should be. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124406 Title: Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/emacs/+bug/124406/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
