Bug 481154

Description of problem:
Every few days, I've had Xorg suddenly transition to a bad keyboard state, where all keys need to be held down for about half a second in order to register (making typing very slow and difficult). Neither dmesg nor /var/log/Xorg.0.log show any unusual events. A bit of experimenting with xev shows that X doesn't even get the keystroke until after that half-a-second (these are all keystrokes, from control to the letter keys). Changing to a text console lets me type without any difficulty - switching back into the X session restores the unusable configuration. Starting a second X session from the console gives me a usable setup, as does logging out of the first session and letting it restart.

How reproducible:
Limited. Problem occurs only every few days, and always when the system is active. It happens during normal use - if I notice any common threads that may lead to the problem I'll add them here.

Additional info:
System is a laptop. I have yet to try plugging in an additional USB keyboard to the system when this happens to see if it's affected.
