Comment 19 for bug 808384

@Raul

Drm shouldn't be the root cause. You may have the key press without key release problem with multimedia keys common with many machines/laptops with multimedia keys, so after a key press there is no release event, userspace gets confused thinking the key is still pressed.

To confirm/see which keys don't get release events, running "showkey -s" as root and pressing the multimedia keys on a vt should do it (you can also use showkey -k as it's more readable to just see what key don't get the release event).

@htorque
It appears your issue may be different than Raul's. If that is the case, we probably want to open a new bug report for your issue, so it can be tracked/addressed properly.
