Comment 11 for bug 1247668

Guys, honestly I can't believe no one's paying attention to this bug.

I mean... it's the most basic input device and it's been working correctly for decades, and now it can't emit the freaking desired symbol?!? I find no words to describe how much frustration this bug keeps causing to me even after months of trying to get used to it: it occurs dozens of times daily that I try to type a number but instead it moves the cursor around, so I have to undo the cursor movement, press numlock twice and then retype the digits. Complete disaster!! You spend tremendous effort in coming up with the perfect desktop system including Unity and whatnot eye candy, but you ignore the very essentials like a working keyboard?? I swear twm with a properly functioning numlock would be more user-friendly.

This bug is a deal breaker for me. It's been three months since I reported it, and no action yet. I'll wait patiently for another two months trying hard not to jump out of the window from the anger this problem causes me, and then upgrade to the very first stable release of 14.04. If it's still not fixed there I'm sorry but I'm going to immediately switch to another distribution. (Not that you care too much about it apparently :( )
