How do I report a bug?
I am a novice Ubuntu user. I posted the below problem, but my question was closed and the moderator noted that it should have been reported as a bug. I followed the instructions for reporting the bug, but I don't know what package has the problem, so I needed to do a general bug reporting using ubuntu-bug in the "Run Application" window. Unfortunately, the only kinds of problems I can report are "security related", "sound/audio", "display", "external or internal storage", and "other". None seemed to fit my problem, so I chose "other" - but then got an error message that says "You need to specify a package or a PID." Can someone please help me out here - and give me a clue as to what I did wrong? Thanks.
Question I originally posted:
This is a slightly difficult problem to explain and it doesn't seem like a hardware issue (though of course I am not sure). I have an Asus EEE PC netbook running Ubuntu 10.10. The tilde key does not work (not using shift and not as the single quote when not using shift). While that is slightly annoying, it isn't such a big deal. What is a huge problem is that randomly out of nowhere, I'll see a bunch of single quotes being typed on the screen. It sometimes happens when I am in a document, in an email, in a browser, or even typing in my password. It's almost like there is some strange virus on my laptop that holds down that button at random points in time. If I start clicking the backspace button, it sometimes deletes them, but sometimes it feels like the key is fighting back and just keeps typing the single quotes. Sometimes (e.g, if I am in the box where I need to enter my password), I can easily just hit ctrl-A and then delete, but sometime the problem persists and I have trouble logging in.
Any thoughts on this? Thanks so much.
