Multiple chars inputed per keystroke

I'm running Gentoo linux and using qingy 1.0.0-r2.
I started qingy for the first time after configuring it.
Neither xdm nor any other dm was running.
I went to the terminal and began typing. Every char I entered was couted twice. I failed to login as rroooott. I tried typing very fast, no change.
qingy is compiled with
X, crypt, directfb, gpm (which is running), and opensslcrypt.
What should I do?
Probably everyone knows the problem with twice the input characters. Observed that qingy-DirectFB 1.0.0 does not take parameters from files directfbrc, wherever they are located. They are set in the file main.c.
So I made a parameter disable-module = linux_input right in main.c. There is a line formed where the arguments to the call directfb version qingy:
gui_argv [i] = StrApp ((char *) NULL, "--dfb: vt-switch, no-vt-switching, bg-none, no-hardware, disable-module = linux_input", (char ) NULL) ;
Miraculously, it worked !!!
