I find that I frequently get double (or triple) characters when typing

same as the one on the Windows machine.

(This is a noisy KB, but nothing types as well as these do! IBM made
good stuff, way back when!)

I guess you have changed the settings.
Go to KDE Control Center > Peripherals > Keyboard.
Adjust the settings, until the keyboard works properly.

Should work!
