JumpSMS skips every other letter with remote - hallergard - 2012-03-30
Running Eden (11.0-0~beta1~ppa~oneiric) on Mint 12. Trying to text in search boxes with the remote (Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T) using Lirc, I get the following: b2b2b2... (but not a and c like in abc2abc2 - which I do get with keyboard input).
Thinking it was a Mint problem I installed Eden on my Kubuntu 11.10 partition, with the same problem. Pls advice.

My guess is the button is being sent twice very quickly for every single "press" you do. The Debug Log will confirm.

Thanks jmarshall. This is the debug output with Eden when pressing "2" five times showing babab:

This is the debug output with Dharma (Fedora 16 partition on the same Desktop) when pressing "2" five times showing abc2a as it should:

What is the action? Change parameters in /etc/lirc/lirc.conf? Or why does this only happen with Linux Eden? Win7 Eden on the same desktop is ok.

Have sent this message twice before, but it does not appear. Sorry if you can see this is three versions, at least I can't right now..
I had not purged the personalized settings when upgrading from Dharma to Eden. It seems the old file keyboard.xml in userdata\keymaps\ was the culprit. Deleted it and SMS texting now works ok.

Great - enjoy Eden
