[Bug 782004] [NEW] Keyboard hangs after holding down shift

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I am using Gnome 3 shell on Natty. After holding down shift for some
time, the keyboard stops responding (every key that I press produces a
beep - even shift etc). My accessibility features are all turned off. No
dialog or notification appears on the screen. Closing applications does
not work. The only option is to log off and log in again.
