Edubuntu 8.04, Tuxtype not responing to keyboard in Cascade game.

[Bob Terrell]

In Edubuntu 8.04, Tuxtype is not responding to the keyboard in Cascade game. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Edubuntu Desktop along with Tuxtype, and the problem remains. I should have plenty of cpu speed and memory. Tuxmath and the rest of Tuxtype are all working correctly. 

This problem is on the Tuxtype bug report page from 2002 (bug# 159436), as occuring at 240 wpm typing speed. I am not typing anywhere near that fast, and the keyboard is not responding. I have not found any workarounds or fixes yet. I also cannot find a place to send to bug report for Tuxtype.

Thanks for any help you can give.
