Binary package hint: xorg
Randomly my keyboard stops responding (although Caps and Num Lock lights work fine). At that time, nautilus becomes unresponsive too. When I do a mouse over the menu area, Applications, Places and System menus are highlighted but menus are not shown.
This bug is somewhat similar to #36734: applications keep working with no ability to input any text. This bug appears after using X for a while, and I could not find a way to be able to type any characters into any program. The only thing I can do is to force X shutdown using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.

I noticed that this bug sometimes (not always) shows up after the screensaver is up... I hope this information might help a bit...
