@Daniel: Does your keyboard have an F-lock key like mine? If so, check
that it's on.

Keyboard special keys
@amichair: Install the ppa-purge package, then use the command sudo
ppa-purge -p aubergine raof. That will disable the PPA and downgrade
your packages to the latest version available from your other sources.

Alright, it seems there's been progress. Questions:
- If it's fixed for you without adding the aubergine repository, does your
mouse jump to the top left corner of the screen the first time you use one of
the special keys after starting the computer? Several people have experienced
that with
apt-get update only updates the list of packages. After doing that, run
sudo apt-get upgrade to install newer versions.

James: I, too, found it very annoying to contend with. However, I think
the reasoning is that the original bug only affects a small slice of
Ubuntu users. If the fix isn't behaving properly, there's a risk that it
will break things for other users. That said, I hope it gets sorted
soon.

Do you mean the 'xorg-server' package? I see that in the webpage for
your PPA, but I don't see any package by that name in my package manager
(and I have your PPA added). I'm also still seeing the jump.

@Patrick (comment 98): That's the original problem. The (0,0) jump is
what some of us have been seeing after installing Chris' updated package
(linked in comment 56), which seems to fix the original problem for a
lot of us, including my own case, which is with the same model of
keyboard as yours.
Thanks, Chris. :-)
I think other people have already posted the input-events output, but if
you need any more information, let us know.

The 'Aubergine' package also fixes that problem for me. Thanks! :-)
It does, however, do something a bit like marshals' problem (comment
63). I only have one monitor, but the first time I use one of the
'special keys', the mouse jumps to the top left corner (presumably 0,0).

Here's the output of xev when I triggered it (XF86AudioPlay, line 133).
It shows a press event on the right mouse button (button 3), but no
corresponding release event, so the computer presumably assumes I'm
holding down the right mouse button. (Just to clarify, this is just from
the keyboard
