Public bug reported:

A brand new Dell Latitude E7450, with a fresh installation of Ubuntu
14.04.2. Sometimes a pressed key repeats until another key is pressed.
This is presumably a BIOS bug.

Here's a discussion about it in Dell's community website
(http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software-
os/f/3525/p/19618638/20748484).

Since Canonical have certified this model
(http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201408-15385/), I have
opened a launchpad question (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-
certification/+question/264500) about it.

Since Dell works closely with Canonical on their products, I was
wondering whether Canonical can get a formal reply from Dell about this
issue (which apparently affects most if not all Linux distributions).
