key board stuck

[Avanti Khardekar]

The problem's solved. Thanks Greg for responding!

This was the problem: The system was shutdown just by closing the lid of the
laptop and the battery got discharged. When I re-started it by plugging in
the power adapter, up till the login screen, the key board typing speed was
fine.

Once I was into the KDE, typing into any thing be it, a web browser, the
console or text editor, was very slow.
Its a slow typing setting. In system settings>accessibility>keyboard
filters> slow typing.
I guess due to some reason, this got enabled.

Although I solved it in a not so neat way.. I deleted some config files,
which I am not sure, by creating  another account. But I feel disabling the
slow typing setting should help.
I also helps for bounce typing.!

Incase some one has some additional suggestions, please share them.

Thanks!
