Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

I've upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 a few days ago.
Sometimes when I am typing on (USB) keyboard random key starts to repeat, as if I am holding it down (but I am not). Repetition stops when I press some other key.
This is happening randomly. Sometimes 3 times in 5 minutes, sometimes once in 2 hours. I feel like it's load dependent (it occurs more often under higher load).

I have tried several keyboards to prove it is not hardware issue.
