Description Chris Kühl 2011-03-30 08:40:03 UTC 
In GNOME 3 fallback mode, keyboard input appears to be swallowed when I use Alt-F1 to access the Application menu followed by ESC. The mouse works perfectly but key presses do not result in any output. To get key presses to work again, one must use the mouse to open the Application menu then click on a category or menu item.

This happens every time.

I'm using the Fedora 15 2.91.92 package.

Actually this is worse than I initially reported. The key presses are also not working when one uses the keyboard to navigate to and start an application. This makes working with the application impossible, of course.

This happens every time as well.
