I have a similar problem.
It seems this problem has been around for YEARS!
Can somebody please pick this up?
My problem:
On a netbook Mivvy G310 (Viooo Corporation PT17) I have key repeats for at least volume up, volume down, mute and the camera button.
They are all used together with the Fn key.

It seems there is no key-release event, so I tried this solution:

which dit not work, see my post:

The web is crawling with these kind of bugs and I can't find a proper solution anywhere!
The netbooks are meant to but Ubuntu on the map as an OS, but because of this bug, they are not production ready!

Please devs, help us fix this, I am willing to put a max of effort in solving this.
I attached a smolt file from Suse with all my sysinfo.
Hope this helps, please let me know if I can do anything to help.
