[Bug 1311344] Re: [sticky keys] shift key is stuck down after suspending/resuming

 

Currently in Ubuntu 14.10 (up to date packages) it seems that sometimes
two shift key presses are required before entering login password,
sometimes one shift key press, with no predictability. Hence for every
login I have to guess and typically have to try entering the password
two to four times before I get it right. As I regularly close and open
the lid of my laptop this behaviour is spectacularly annoying. Please
please please can you give this some priority.
