Keyboard Input Lag on new 18.10 Install

favorite












I recently purchased a new SSD after my old HDD died, and decided do go 100% Ubuntu on it. The install went smoothly and I love the system, save for the slight lag between typing on my keyboard and seeing letters appear on screen.



The delay is maybe about half a second on average, but it's enough to make the experience of using my terminal feel sluggish.



I'm on a fresh install, using proprietary NVIDIA drivers, and the default gdm3 display manager. I've been away from Ubuntu for a bit, and I don't quite remember enough about how keyboard input is read to start debugging it.



Any other logs/info I can provide to help, let me know.
