Keyboard system lock-out with latest in Ubuntu 14.04
Posted: Tue Jun 17, 2014 4:34
This is a nasty one, and very hard to track down. After playing for a while and pulling down the console with ` a few times, keyboard and mouse input will stop being accepted, which means I can't quit the application, alt-tab out and kill the process, or much of anything else. Ctrl-Alt-F1/F2/F3 etc to bring up text mode terminals works, but no keyboard input is accepted beyond that. I just have to hard-restart the machine.
I'm running from git commit 5a0f1a882a5b1e10c31db0bcdadf5703abbb3bfc, though I've been seeing this for the past couple of weeks from a few previous commits. Nothing non-standard about my setup really, Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit with an Nvidia GTX 660 graphics card. I've never been able to get this bug to occur in ZDoom latest; it seems to be GZDoom-specific.
I realize I don't have a log or debugger access when the bug happens, but please let me know what kind of info I could maybe provide to help track this down, as well as any more specific repro advice than what I've given.
