I get the same behavior here on an Thinkpad T43, in X and on the console. When I lose a character relase the kernel prints e.g. the following:

[17214444.112000] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x6e on isa0060/serio0).
[17214444.112000] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 6e <keycode>' to make it known.

I have gnome-power-manager running displaying he battery status.
When I kill it, the problem goes away.
