It could be a controller problem, I dont use my Noshist's (Noppoos) as I call them, but I did get one of the first batch of the Filco Zero board a few years back and that had a problem with the direction and speed of scan rate so you got lots of transposition errors (like teh) and there is a trick you can do by pressing a credit card (or something like) down at a slight angle into 4 or 5 keys a few times into a basic text editor and checking the results are correct. I checked it with another Filco, no change, and then an older ALPS blue switched, then an g80-3000 board with diodes, but nothing stopped it until I changed the BIOS kbrd speed down to normal, it was a problem for all of the boards I used.įrom what I have read the above bounce delay setting is often not perfect for cherry switched boards, but as I dont leave the cli I doubt it really matters to me, but might help other users. That said after many years of using most types of mech 'board without ever seeing a problem, I thought I would try a diff *nix distro (arch, I'm a slackware user) on a spare box, as soon as I hit the cli I started to get multiple key presses.
Its not a common problem for mech keyboards, and the cherry MX switch was made to stop this problem, because of the way the switch works you have to come back off the contact past the latching point to make another contact its not like a 'dome board.
