The problem only applies to Control, Alt and both Shifts. Occasionally one of these will "stick" after being released, i.e. MiNT does not notice that the key is released and I have to press and release the key again. I usually get this problem when using PureC, but that's probably because that's what I use 95% of the time I use my Milan. I have also noticed this problem in other applications. So far I have not been able to reproduce this problem under TOS, only under MiNT/XaAES. Jo Even
