Bug Description
Hello!
Booting Kubuntu edgy as Xen dom0 makes my keyboard unusable under X11. It gets very sluggish, meaning that there is a varying delay between key press and printing of a character on the screen and that some characters are doubled.
After logging in to X11, the keyboard first behaves as it should, but at the time kdewallet asks for the wallet passphrase (which is usually the last thing that happens when the session is restored), the keyboard starts to behave like this.
I have installed the following packages:
libc6-xen (2.4-1ubuntu12)
libxen3.0 (3.0.3-0ubuntu1)
python-xen3.0 (3.0.3-0ubuntu1)
xen-docs-3.0 (3.0.3-0ubuntu1)
xen-hypervisor-
xen-image-
xen-restricted-
xen-utils-3.0 (3.0.3-0ubuntu1)
The problem seems to be (K)Ubuntu specific, as it does not happen with the Xen 3.0.3 live CD.
I have suspected it might be a kernel/hypervisor problem and tried the latest unstable XEN kernel/hypervisor (from xen-unstable.hg) without replacing the user space tools, but the problem still occurs.
I have also suspected, that my CPU is detected wrong, because I have a Pentium 4 1.8 GHz which the hypervisor rightly detects as such but the dom0 kernel (from the package and also the xen upstream kernel) reports a 2 GHz Pentium.
Read U!

On the console the keyboard works fine. So it's probably a problem in the Xserver that is exposed by Xen.
