Internal laptop keyboard glitches with ubuntu


I have an old lenovo G550 which no longer runs windows properly and i reinstalled ubuntu and kali linux. The issue i have with ubunthu is that the keyboard glitches out and repeats keys when i use the internal keyboard. It doesnt have this issue in kali and it also doesnt have this issue if i plug in an external usb keyboard.

Logging in requires i type the password 5 times because if you type the '123456' it gives you 123333334455556. Any idea how i might get this to stop?

Hi, It's possible you got a bad download of the ubuntu iso.

I'f you have checked, and the iso is fine,

I would first boot to a consol and see if it behaves the same.

If not, it may be an xorg package that needs updating.
