Details

Description:

Since the upgrade below whenever I press Super (sometimes also Control) and release it again it still acts as it would be pressed

xev shows just one event for the first keypress and release

I've downgraded both packages to 0-2 and all works as expected again...

I've just verified that xev is showing TWO events for the first press/release of Super with the 0-2 packages which is what I would expect

Additional info:
* package version(s)

[2010-04-10 13:23] upgraded nx-common (3.4.0-2 -> 3.4.0-4)
[2010-04-10 13:23] upgraded nxserver (3.4.0-2 -> 3.4.0-3)

-------------------------

On the client I'm using "new virtual desktop" option, Desktop: Unix/Custom, default X client script

This report contains all information.  FS#19030  should be closed instead (I moved away from the page accidentally when creating it and it seems to have been saved too early)

Same Problem here. First keypress on Alt Gr shows only KeyPress event, next keypress shows KeyRelease event before KeyPress event. Downgrading nxserver and nx-common to 3.4.0-2 solved the problem.

still an issue in latest packages?

Seems to be fixed for me with nx-common 3.4.0-4/nxserver 3.4.0-7. Thanks.
