Comment 114 for bug 194214

I am currently using 8.04 with all the latest patches and still having this error. As others above have mention it usually happens when trying to click the mouse or type while another application is doing any intensive cpu or disk access. Personally for me its usually happens when running VMware Workstation but I have experience the same issues with other applications as well. When this occurs, I am unable to type in any new applications that is launched. It automatically crashes/closes the application regardless of the key I press. Odd thing for me is any existing application that is already open before this occurs will not crash or close, but it looks like my shift key is stuck as I am unable to type any capital letters.
