Title:
  Keyboard randomly loses and inserts keystrokes (often!)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When typing in several applications  (libreoffice, and firefox, at
  least)  the keyboard is unreliable, to the point of being unusable.
  Sometimes it starts missing characters and occasionally inserting
  extra characters - input will stop (while I continue to type) and
  after a few missing keystrokes operation will resume, oftenwith a few
  (to a dozen) extra characters are inserted.  The extra characters will
  be the same (for the occurrence), and one of the characters I typed (
  I think it may be the first "missing" character.)  For example, say I
  was typing "partridge", and this problem occurs when I type the "t":
  I might get to the end of the word with "part" displaying, then
  "partrrrrr" might appear.

  I type at 80 words per minute.  If I type at  20 words per minute,
  this does not occur.

  This is not a hardware fault:  I replaced the hard drive before
  installing ubuntu, so I reinstalled the windows 7 drive to see if the
  problem was present.  All keyboard operations returned to normal with
  the Windows disk.  I again swapped out the disks, then reinstalled
  Ubuntu from scatch, reformatting the disk.  The fault continues to
  occur.

  I note that when this is occurring, I find the following in syslog:
  ul 25 17:50:38 tuxtop kernel: [ 6686.308573] psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1

  ...
  continuously.

  Googling for similar, both the overt symptom (keystrokes
  missed/repeated) and the above messages have been reported before (at
  least as early as 2008), but no fixes identified.

  Platform is hp dm1z-3000 laptop, with clickpad.  I have three other ubuntus (all desktops) which do not exhibit this problem.
