Description Stefan Dirsch 2007-11-12 06:31:38 UTC
I'm seing a strange keyboard behaviour since xorg-server 1.4 (still works with xorg-server 1.3). kdb driver is the same (xf86-input-keyboard 1.2.2).

- us keyboard layout.
1) press + hold 'c' 
2) press + hold <Shift>  (still hold 'c')
3) press '$'

Result is '4' instead of expected '$'.

Looks like this only happens with Shift-L and not with Shift-R and only with 
'y','x','c','v'.
Comment 2 Stefan Dirsch 2007-11-12 06:44:20 UTC
Easier to check. Just press and hold 'y','x','c' or 'v' and then press <Shift-L> to see if the characters change to capital letters, then back to small letters and so on.
