Someone also mentioned it on fedoraforum.org, so this is not unique to my keyboard.<br><br>I have noticed that when I am typing, the letters v,b,f,g,r,t,4,5 do not always type, making it very difficult to write emails and enter commands. The curious thing, as I just ascertained a moment ago, is that the missing characters all line up diagonally on the keyboard.<br><br>I am using the pc105 character german keyboard setting with all dead keys, like it is supposed to be, and have the system set to use utf-8, which is the default. I have also enabled the xkbd compose key option, although I don't really need it, having an international keyboard with dead keys, on the useless key to the left of the right ctrl key.<br><br>Could there be some problem with keysim mappings or something? I thought that, since the keys all line up, that there could be a problem with the keyboard, but as I had said, it has only happened twice in the last 3 weeks and someone else reported the problem on fedoraforum about 2 weeks ago.<br></div><br>kwhiskerz{<br><br /><hr />Personalize your Live.com homepage with the news, weather, and photos you care about. <a href='http://www.live.com/getstarted.aspx?icid=T001MSN30A0701' target='_new'>Try it!</a></body> </html>
