I am experiencing the same issue on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li1818 laptop
and the internal touchpad. This doesn't seem to be limited to Microsoft
keyboards.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: xorg
Following an online update from Kubuntu Lucid to Maverick beta, use of
almost any of the 'special' buttons on the keyboard (mail, home, documents,
play/pause, volume up, zoom in...) fires a ButtonPress event (as seen by
xev) for the physically left mouse button (i.e. left click with the mouse
set right-handed, 'right click' if set left-handed). There is no
corresponding ButtonRelease, so the computer acts as if that mouse button is
held down. The ButtonPress occurs between the KeyPress and KeyRelease events
of the special key.
This makes the mouse essentially unusable. So far, I've not found a way to
reset it besides logging off (i.e. restarting X).
Hardware:
- Basic Microsoft keyboard and mouse (optical wheel mouse, Digital Media
Keyboard 3000)
- Intel graphics (lspci says it's an 82G33/31 integrated graphics
controller)
Initially I thought the problem was related to kwin compositing (which also
causes some problems, see bug 630632 ), but I've found it happening even
with desktop effects turned off.
I don't know if xorg is the best package to file this against, so if not,
please point me in the right direction.
