Description Konstantin 2024-02-22 10:50:21 UTC

Sometimes Shift doesn't work. For example, in Dolphin, I press Shift+Delete and it suggests deleting to the trash instead of completely deleting. You have to click several times to make the complete deletion menu appear (not in the trash).

The problem is already quite old, I thought it was the keyboard, but I changed the PC and tried several keyboards. For some reason, the right Shift sometimes does not work, although I press it normally.

I also reinstalled the system several times and the problem persists. I came across this problem a few years ago when I switched to Linux + KDE Plasma.

I forgot to say that sometimes Ctrl and Alt don't work either.

Comment 2 Konstantin 2024-02-22 20:03:11 UTC

You have to press it several times. Because it doesn't work the first time. I've tried it on several mechanical and membrane keyboards.

cannot reproduce on stable kde neon. perhaps an arch issue and/or your system configuration?
