I'm having an odd, and quite annoying issue from time to time, with keyboard input. I have a PanP7, and I'm running 11.04 and Gnome 3. Every now and then, for no apparent reason, the keyboard will start acting as though I'm trying to enter text somewhere I can't, when I'm trying to enter it in a text field (or anywhere else text can be inputted, like the URL bar on the browser). What will happen is I'll type any key, no letter or symbol will be inputted, the cursor will not move, and it will make that sound that it makes when you are at the very beginning of a text field, and you hit backspace.
I am absolutely positive that I am in a proper text field when it happens, and I can't click into any other text field once it does...the only thing I can do is log out and log back in.
Any ideas as to how I can correct the problem? And feel free to let me know if I should have posted this in the General forum.
