Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I have a Dell Studio 1535 and I have problems with the keyboard. I've
used Jaunty and now using Karmic, but I'm still experiencing problems.
Sometimes when I type, a key randomly gets "stuck" and repeats, until I
press a key again (it doesn't matter if I press the same key or any
other key). I've also used Kubuntu and experienced the same there too.
It's very hard to reproduce because it's random. I've also tried Windows
Vista and Windows 7, but there were no issues there. Typing seems to be
jagged compared to typing in Windows.

Someone else already reported this issue on the forums:

I hope that we can hunt down this little irritating bug :)
