If I press any button 2 times quickly (I mean with less one second of delay between the keystrokes), Ubuntu doesn't detect the second one. In particularly, Ubuntu seems to detect the pressure because when I push the backspace, I can listen the sound related to the beating, but it has no effect (the letter is not inserted in the text or deleted in backspace case). How to fix it?

Note: I used Ubuntu 11.10

I had the same problem. Its with the key board.

This is called filter keys. you have to uncheck this function, this function does not recognize multiple strikes of same key in continuance.

Press shift 5 times, you will either 1) get a window of sticky keys. press 'settings'and uncheck filter keys or, 2) see a small clock on the lower right hand side of your screen, click on that and it will open sticky keys window and rest follow the same as in 1). and you are done :)

Let me know if it helps !! :)
