kasteroids not working right

[Daniel]

All the button controls in kasteroids seem to be doubling up or something. I press the space bar to shoot once and it shoots but never stops shooting. I press the up arrow key to move forward and it moves forward but never stops moving. Any help?

FWIW, I just tested Kasteroids on VL6.0-KDE-Classic-B2 and it works here. If you have a spare partition, you may want to give it a try.

I am running VL 5.9.1 SOHO which has KDE like the 6.0-KDE-Classic version so unless the problem is VL6.0 vs. 5.9 I'm not sure if that would solve anything. I don't have a spare partition anyway though. I got the package of kasteroids that I am using from an old xandros cd. I converted the .deb package to .tar.gz and used makepkg to get an installable package. I also got the libkdegames dependency the same way. I got those individual packages because I didn't want to install the entire KDE Games package. (I didn't make my root partition big enough when I installed and I haven't gotten around to backing up /home and resizing /root.) I'll check my keyboard settings to see if something is screwy there. More suggestions are welcome too.
