[Bug 597753] Re: Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed

 

I experience the same problem, since one week now - and only on Ubuntu, not on Windows.
I have a quiet new keyboard and just re-seated the connector on the mainboard (its a notebook).
The problem is still there (only on Ubuntu) - so I can quiet sure exclude any hardware issues.

I have no flash activated and experience the problem on gedit, evolution and in the browser.
So I think this has nothing to do with the software that is being used.

The problem goes away usually after some seconds or minutes of inactivity.
Sometimes I have the impression, that it is being caused by Ctrl+Shift combinations, but this might be pure chance, since it definitely happened after simple keypresses (like Return), too.
Yes, I'm a fast writer.
I was already guessing for something like Orca interfering, but all this is completely disabled.
I just made some user-defined settings in keystroke-combinations settings dialogue, but I can't see anything strange, there.

Help would really be appreciated, thanks.
(I have a messenger for interactive debug sessions.)
