I'm getting a similar bug in Jaunty only.  I just installed Jaunty for
the first time (new linux user) a few weeks ago...had this problem.
Reinstalled Hardy, the problem went away.  Upgraded tooooooooooo Ibex,
and the problem stayed away.  Now I've upgraded ttttttttttto (see?)
Jaunty again and the problem is back.  This has been consistent
regardless of what program I am typing in (including terminal and login
screen).

I'm using a compal IFL90 notebook (Sager NP2090, which is the same
thing) with a USB mouse plugged in (athough I can replicate the problem
without the mouse plugged in).  It has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and
an GeForce 8600 M GT video card.

Turning off key repeat fixes some of the problem, but I still get
dropped keypresses.

I think I can replicate it by touching the touchpad while typing fast,
and I can't seem to replicate it when I make a conscious effort not to
touch the touchpad.

Disabling the touchpad through system>preferences>mouse does not seem to
fix the problem and it still seems to happen while touchiiiiiiiiiing the
touchpad (even though, it doesn't actually move the mouse).

I also have not been able to replicate while avoiding the touchpad and
moving the mouse while typing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
