![]() You might need to check if the id number is the right one for your keyboard. You can find this number by running xinput list. Try this in a bash script file: #!/bin/bashĬhange the number 11 in xinput test 11 to your keyboard device number. In trying to implement the suggestion by I used "3" for the keyboard ID and I left the keycode as 38. ![]() KeyRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x7c00001, State 0x10, keycode 38 (keysym 0圆1, a), same_screen YES, KeyPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x7c00001, Preferably, I'd like to use a solution that uses xbindkeys though because I'm already using that package to remap my mouse buttons.ĮDIT: In response to a comment below, here are the outputs of 'xinput list' and 'xev': $ xinput list I just want to temporarily disable the "a" key and only the "a" key for a very brief period of time (~50ms).įortunately, I rarely need to repeat the letter "a" when typing, so even a solution that uses something like autocorrect would work for me. The second answer in that same question doesn't work either because it disables the entire keyboard after the problem key is pressed. For example, the solution proposed in the first answer to this question disables autorepeat, but that won't work for me because "a" isn't becoming stuck in the "Pressed" state. I've seen other people ask this same question, but the solutions are not actually the one I'm seeking. It is repeating itself as if I pressed and released it multiple times. In other words, the key isn't sticking in the "KeyPress" state. In case it helps, I used xev to determine exactly what sequence of commands the OS is receiving and it looks like each time "a" repeats itself it is because the keyboard is sending the desired sequence multiple times (KeyPress followed by KeyRelease, then KeyPress followed by KeyRelease again). (ok I won't leave the repeats in the remaining text, but you can see that it occurs with m aadenning frequency) In other words, "bounce keys" interferes with my ability to type quickly whenever I need to type a word with a repeated letter (< like "t" in the word "letter") or repe aaatedly press backspace quickly. I tried to mitigate this issue using "bounce keys", but this feature temporarily disables all keys after they aare pressed.

What gives?
