This can't be a bug in Emacs, since I never used Emacs on my machine, and never will. To my knowledge it has been established that this bug affects *many* applications, and also seems to be more frequent in certain hardware setups. All this points to it being a deeply embedded problem, most likely

That's very difficult for me to guess, legolas... But the mailing list thread quoted on http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9147 seems to indicate that modifier keys such as Ctrl and Alt were handled the same way in 2.4 as all keypresses are in 2.6; that is, they weren't released until a

2Don, I think the priority of interrupt handling is not the problem, the race conditions are. I've never had this problem on single-core CPU. Unloading most of ACPI stuff will solve the problem, however this is a nasty solution (I've laptop and use events of ac/battery for energy profile changes).
