Sorry for the delay, my laptop decided it didn't want to use the monitor when booting from a live CD for some reason, took me a while to figure out a way around that. I was able to boot into the Jan 31 nightly, and recreated the problem. Screen came back on and xev logged a Control_L less than 5 minutes after the screensaver came on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1537308 Title: System sends Control, Alt and Shift events without input.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1537308] [NEW] System sends Control, Alt and Shift events without input.
Public bug reported: I noticed strange behavior from my Ubuntu system. While left idle, the screensaver would shut off with no interaction with the machine. While using the machine, webpages would zoom in or out when trying to scroll, and command windows would open while typing. Using xev, I found that these events corresponded with ALt_L, Control_L and Shift_R events, even though those buttons were not being pressed. I'm attaching a xev log, searching for _L will show the events. ((Shift_R events are, for some reason, much rarer and do not occur in the particular log I'm adding.) In many (but not all) incidents, the KeyRelease event occurs without a preceding KeyPress event. This problem starts a variable period of time after booting the machine; generally within 4 hours. Once it starts, it persists until a reboot. Disabling the trackpad with xinput will stop the problem for several hours, but eventually something re-enables the trackpad and the problem reappears. Running memtest on the box generates an error when one specific core runs one specific test, but I cannot rule out that being related to memtest's problems with UEFI systems. (See passmark.com/forum/showthread.php?5638 for info on my memtest results and the UEFI issues.) I returned the machine to HP for service. They replaced the keyboard, trackpad and memory. This did not resolve the problem. I've recreated the problem in UbuntuMate, Ubuntu, and Debian, on both 3.x and 4.x kernels. I cannot reliably reproduce the issue on the Windows partition on the same box; I think I might have seen it once or twice while working on the machine, but can't rule out accidental keypresses by me at those times. Leaving a keylogger running for over 24 hours on the Windows partition did not show any unexpected keyboard events.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1537308] Re: System sends Control, Alt and Shift events without input.
Subscribed penalvch based on comments on 1264713 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1537308 Title: System sends Control, Alt and Shift events without input. Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I noticed strange behavior from my Ubuntu system. While left idle, the screensaver would shut off with no interaction with the machine. While using the machine, webpages would zoom in or out when trying to scroll, and command windows would open while typing. Using xev, I found that these events corresponded with ALt_L, Control_L and Shift_R events, even though those buttons were not being pressed. I'm attaching a xev log, searching for _L will show the events. ((Shift_R events are, for some reason, much rarer and do not occur in the particular log I'm adding.) In many (but not all) incidents, the KeyRelease event occurs without a preceding KeyPress event. This problem starts a variable period of time after booting the machine; generally within 4 hours.
