Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, I amtyping this without correcting -- allthe lost characters you see (including spaces!) are exactly what the pseudo-tty driver does! This is 2.4.1 a it definitely (oh, see "nd" of the ave "and" disappeared? and "above" turned into "ave"!) did work fine previously -- like in the days of 2.3.99 and 2.4.0-teX series (yes, teX was meant to be "testX"!) So, the keyboard or pty driver is badly broken. Regards, Tigran PS. This only happens on this Dell latitude CPx (notice lost shift in Latitude?) H450GT. PPS. No, my laptop is fine -- rebootingnto 2.2.x makes it type without loosing characters... - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
