I have had the same problem in to two different setups and here is what solved the problem for me:
1) Ubuntu 6.10 in VM-Ware Player 2) Ubuntu 7.04 on AMD64 X2 on Mainboard Asus M2N-E Same behaviour on both, so I guess the hardware details are not so important. The Problem appeared from one day to the next without any change in the system. I tried Rebooting, on the AMD64 as that had helped in the VM-WarePlayer, but no success. But rebooting keeps several components of the PC unter power. You can see several LEDs still bright while Computer is switched off. So I shut down the computer and pulled the Plug for several seconds. All the LED were dark then (of cause :-). Reconnect to power and switch on and... the problem was gone. So maybe there is an issue in the keyboard driver not initializing enough registers at startup? If they contain a wrong value for some resaon, you cannot get it out be reloading the driver or rebooting the computer.
