slow response on keystroke

Hi folks,
FC3
This problem "slow response on keystroke" only happened lately and on user KDE desktop only. Root KDE/GNOME desktop and user GNOME desktop all have no problem. On user KDE desktop on all applications I have to press and hold each key a while before it works/responses.

Move/rename the users ~/.kde then try again. If that solves the problem, move it back and start delving deeper into it moving/renaming until you find out what the culprit is. A bit of a long winded way but you should be able to find out what's causing it.

Just having a look in kcontrol, got to "Regional & Accessibility" > "Accessibility" > "Keyboard Filters" and make sure "Use Slow Keys" is not checked....

Tks for your advice.
Problem solved as your advice indicates. The right shift_key got problem occasionally. It won't return after pressing down. After a few seconds a Warning-"KDE accessibility Tool" popup automatically. Maybe I pressed [Yes] accidentally causing this problem.
