noisygecko, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is
already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one
would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Repeated keystrokes gets lost randomly

Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Every once in a while my repeated keystrokes quits working.  I then go
  into the "System Settings", "Keyboard", and see that "Key presses
  repeat when key is held down" is checked.  If I un-check and then re-
  check it then repeated keystrokes works again.

  I am not sure how to cause this, but on forums others have suggested
  it might be VmWare, and I do use vmplayer.
