I switched to Ubuntu a couple weeks ago, everything is going fine so far but I've ran into a problem and I'm not sure how to solve it.
The problem is, Ubuntu thinks I'm typing a null character every second or so.
I use a Brazilian Portuguese keyboard which has dead keys and it's pretty annoying when I'm trying to type a backtick and end up with Ç, or when I try to type ã but end up with ῶ.
When I try to login in the virtual terminal it keeps spamming ^@ so it doesn't let me type anything properly.
And while playing a SDL game it keeps complaining on the terminal about not recognizing the null character.
What I found on the internet were these two SE questions:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41905525/null-input-character-spamming-linux-tty
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/396192/spam-in-tty-but-seems-to-be-system-wide
But none of the solutions worked for me.
So, is there a way to disable this? Or is it a normal thing? Am I missing something obvious?
