I tried -current yesterday, the problem remains.
I also disassembled my notebook to clean the keyboard, it's perfect now
- same problem.

After I moved back to 3.8 all was perfect for houres, but that doesn't
mean that the problem is solved, because it sometimes just doesnt appear.

Then I did a kernel upgrade to -stable, rebooted my machine and had the
problem immediately back. That doesn't proof that the -stable kernel is
wrong, but i will work the next days with 3.8-non-stable and observe the
situation.
