Description of problem: When using the shift key, and pressing a succession of keys rather rapidly, input is receives back to front. For example, my root password contains a sequence of capital letters, say "ABCD", and it took me a while to understand why my passwords were not matching. The reason is that if I hold the shift key pressed and type "abcd" in a quick succession, "DCBA" is received (I tried it in the "What's your name screen" to see it in clear text). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-21_Alpha-1 How reproducible: I suppose this guy had the same problem: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.testers/113827 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora 21 as a new vm with virt-manager in Fedora 20 2. Try typing a sequence of capital letters with the switch key in the installer Actual results: Scrambled/back-to-front input Input works fine outside the installer, ie when the system is installed.
I can only reproduce it when the system is terribly slow, ie. disabling kvm acceleration.
