[3ddesktop-dev] Re: Keyboard Input

OK, after a bit of testing, it doesn't seemed to have fixed it. 
I played with it a little more, and determined that it doesn't
really happen any more often when I'm hitting keys quicker, or
closer together. It just seemed that way because when I shifted
desktops 500 times per minute, I'd get more hits per minute.

I think I'll double check the focus settings in enlightenment. I
thought that I had home and work set up the same, but maybe not.
Maybe enlightenment taking focus away because of some strange 
setting. 

Maybe I'll dig into the code, and try some experimenting to 
see if I can barrow it down. It's always easier if you can 
actually duplicate the problem. Then if I figure anything out, I
can have someone that actually knows what they're doing create a
real fix ;)..
