Description of problem: (This is a DELL L400 laptop) When I close the lid on my laptop the computer is suspended to RAM. Before it got suspended the keyboard worked fine, i.e. when pressing and holding a key it gets repeated: sssssssssssss <- pressing and holding s once. When the laptop returns from suspend the key doesn't repeat: s <- pressing and holding s. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): apmd-3.0.2-12 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Close the lid and the computer suspends to RAM 2.Open the lid and the keyboard is not correctly restored Actual Results: The key is pressed but not repeated after a suspend. Expected Results: The key that is pressed and hold down should be repeated as it was before the suspend.
The same goes for the mouse... I can double-click on a windowlist to shade it. BUT I can not double-click and drag the window as I could before I suspended the laptop... /Richard
Hmm, this is strange. If I log out of gnome and type into the user/passwd field in gdm the keys are repeated. But directly when I have logged into gnome it doesn't work again (only the first time I log into Gnome before a suspend it works). Seems to me this might be a Gnome bug?

I have similar problem. My machine is a desktop. Before using Redhat7.3/8.0, it worked OK on RH7.2 My machine BIOS power-saving option is to suspend after 15 minutes of idle. After I disabled this suspension option, the keyboard problem disappeared.
In latest phoebe this is no longer the case. I reported this initially. So, relax :) Now it works!
