I added a bug report of my own a while ago, I didn't think with some of the explanations here that my issue was the exact same bug, but its hard to tell with so many people reporting.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input- evdev/+bug/371066 Anyway if it is related, concerning USB this is what I found. My laptop keyboard is on the USB bus, and has the problem. However if I plug in an external USB keyboard it works fine. I've found that depressing 2 keys at the same time doesn't report both most of the time, and will often result in a runaway 'stuck' key. Also if I run xev and do the same xev reports a continuous keypress event with no release when the 'stuck' keys happen. -- Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat (Feisty, Gutsy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124406 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
