Subject: Lenovo ThinkPad USB Keyboard: delayed release of Shift/Ctrl/Alt
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2010 12:08:47 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100712090847.GB25456@shutemov.name> (raw)

I've bought Thinkpad USB Keyboard (P/N 55Y9086) last week.

Unfortunately, it has very annoying issue. When you type fast enough
and you want to type one capitalized (Shift + a letter) you'll get two or
even three capitalized letters (e.g. WOrd instead of Word). The same
problem with Alt and Ctrl keys.

Windows users also complains about the issue. So it looks like a hardware
(or firmware?) issue.

Is it possible to workaround the issue in the driver or I have to return
the keyboard to the store?
