I posted to LKML about this.

Replies that I got;
* " I had the same problem back in the 2.6.16 to 2.6.20 days (no dynticks). The 
only solution I found was to get rid of gnome. Since then I've been happily 
running with xfce."
Can anyone confirm or deny that this is re-producable in other desktop 
environments than GNOME?

* "Very probably this is due to broken way how X themselves implement 
auto-repeat, instead of using kernel-provided auto-repeat functionality. I 
guess you are not able to reproduce this problem in the console, but only X, 
right?"
Yeah, I've never seen this problem in the console. Anyone have?

* "AFAIK it's a problem with X being confused by scheduler behavior
(which is not necessarily wrong)."
