I think closing this bug and branding it as a KDE problem is a little hasty. In
the comments section of the City of Heroes game listing there is a comment
thread discussing this problem -- specifically that if you disable auto-repeat
certain functions of the game start working again (very specifically, using the
super jump power). Significantly, the people discussing this bug consist of one
KDE user and one Gnome user. Both of us are using Jaunty but are not using the
same x environment.

Are both desktop environments doing the same wrong thing to trigger the bug?
Probably not -- one theory is that it's the latest version of the xorg server
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1146254, this thread also contains a
patch to wine that claims to fix the problem).

Is it an xorg problem or a wine problem? My prediction is that xorg will claim
its a wine problem, and wine will claim its an xorg problem... at any rate, it
is NOT specifically a KDE problem and the source of the problem isn't really
"obvious" to someone who is noticing it in a windows application.
