Public bug reported: Since I upgraded to KDE 4.2.96 (KDE 4.3 RC2) in my Kubuntu Jaunty 64 bits, the system is *unusable*: the keyboard behaves, very often, as if the key Ctrl, Alt, AltGr or Caps is pressed (so if I want to write "a" then "A" is written, or perhaps Ctrl+A action is performed, or Alt+A....). Really annoying. The problem takes some seconds and "magically" dissapears.
It's not a problem in my keyboard since it occurs using the laptop keyboard and also with two USB keyboards I've tryed. It's not also a Kernel issue (2.6.28-11-generic) since it occurs also if I start the system with an older kernel (2.6.27-11-generic) running previously. It also occurs in no-KDE applications so it's not just a KDE problem. Basically it occurs *always* (perhaps one time each 15 minutes). It occurs without the need of pressing those keys before, for example: I'm composing a mail and want to write "hello world". I write "hello w" and when I press "o" it appears as "O" (or Ctrl+O action is performed if it exists...). It didn't occur before the last upgrade (~1 week ago).
