I found this out by accident, because something was pressing on my
spacebar when I tried to scroll up and down in Firefox. When the
spacebar is pressed, and the mouse is used, say scrolling, or clicking,
or rightclicking, when all the keys are released, the spacebar appears
to be stuck. None of the modifier keys register as being pressed. Mouse
can be used, and the only way to get rid of the problem is to kill X,
not through Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, because that doesn't work, but
Alt+SysRq+R, Ctrl+Alt+F1, and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart.
