Title:
  Control characters and caps lock and other control characters don't
  work in X in Hardy Development

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  For the last 2-3 weeks in Hardy I have been having seeming random
  keyboard mapping issues where SHIFT and CTRL no longer seem to work
  after a few hours/minutes. CAPS LOCK indicator no longer lights up
  when pressed. Occurs in xterms, gnome-terminal and all X apps. This
  occurs whether using KDM/GDM (KDE/GNOME) and various window managers:
  openbox, fluxbox, xfce, etc. Another issue I have seen is that a small
  number (less than 5%) of sessions through GDM hang after login usually
  with GNOME. No issues with OpenBox.

  Exiting out and logging in again from GDM/KDM always solves the
  problem until it happens again.

  Hardware: Lenovo T-61
  Kernel: 2.6.24-16-generic

  Nothing observed in /var/log/messages or dmesg
