Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3+18
Severity: normal
If I hold a key down at the moment that I switch away from an X console,
the server misses the key-release signal and keeps auto-repeating key-press
events until I switch back. The easiest way to reproduce this is to type
chvt 1 in a terminal window and press the enter key, holding it down for
just a moment until the screen blanks. Wait a few seconds, then switch back
to the X console. The terminal will be filled with empty prompts.
I suggest that the X server should immediately send key-release events for
all the keys that are held down at the moment the console is switched.
