Alphanumeric Keys ingnored

[Spare Time Hacker]

Hi all,
I haven't used C::B for a while and surely my Ubuntu got a few updates meanwhile.

Now I'm experiencing the following: when typing code everything works fine until I use any non-alphanumeric key. Regardless of whether I press the cursor, backspace, or delete keys, alphanumeric (a...z & 0...9) keystrokes are no longer accepted until I press ctrl-s. After ctrl-s keys are accepted until next non-alphanumeric keystroke. Months ago everything worked absolutely fine.

I appreciate any helpful idea. Thanks in advance.

Are you using Wayland or X Windows?

It's Wayland.

It's Wayland.

1. make sure you are using the newest GTK supplied by your distro because one past keyboard issues was likely caused by GTK per Internet search.
2. search and find the way to switch wxWidgets to stop using Wayland when launching code::blocks on the command line:
    reason is to confirm  Wayland as the likely cause.

Thank you very much!

Starting C::B from command line with "GDK_BACKEND=x11 codeblocks" it sucessfully passes first testing.
