After reading the comments here I'm not sure if I've got the same bug(s). But this just started for me with Jaunty.

I not only get repeating keys, but also many missed keys that don't register a keypress when typing quickly. Booting to windows - no problem.

I can reproduce the sticky keys fairly regularly by depressing 2 keys at once every few seconds, within a few presses I'll end up with a runaway key.

I don't see the problem in console VT1 , even if I have an X session logged in on VT7and running my usual stuff.

I've started xinit with nothing but an xterm to rule out any applications such as compiz, kde, etc. I've switched between radeonhd and FGLRX as well. The only constant seems to be X itself.
