Sorry for the delay. I want to help, but I'm not sure I can. I didn't get answers to my questions in #2. Is this bug about visibly stuck keys or not? If not, then everything else about visibly stuck keys is unrelated and should go into a different bug report.

The log file shows the symptom but no cause, unfortunately. There's a possibility, though that only Small layout might be affected and not the default Compact.

I'm trying to be constructive, so here's what I'll do: I've ordered another tablet, decidedly the lowest-end one I could find that will (hopefully) still run desktop Ubuntu. Perhaps I'll be able to reproduce the issues there.

@Francesco, we tried to get the the bottom of your stuck key issues before, but I suppose my requests got lost in the stress before the release back then. This commit was for you:

Remember, your setup with two pointing devices is special enough that any stuck keys might as well be unique to that particular situation. If you're ready now we can retry, but be warned this will probably require a couple of iterations. Remote debugging is hard and takes effort from both sides.
