** Description changed:
I can reproduce this:
If i hold the LEFT-Cursor Key and press CTRL (LEFT+CTRL as in CTRL+c to copy)
my Keyboard stops working. Mouse is still working.
"Meta-keyboard-commands" outside of X (e.g. CTRL+ALT+BACKSP or
CTRL+ALT+F1...) are still effective, therefore i can restart X and log
in again. So i think, this is somehow related to X.
I haven't found anything interesting in .xsession-errors or
/var/log/Xorg.0.log but i have attached them. I logged the output of xev
while provocing the freeze:
<code>KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00002,
root 0x5b, subw 0x0, time 30918556, (71,-8), root:(149,88),
state 0x2010, keycode 100 (keysym 0xff51, Left), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
FocusOut event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00002,
mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor
</code>
+ I have tested several keyboards (HP SDL4000 PS2; Cherry RS 6000 USB) and
+ the problem ist reproducable with all of them, so this is not related to
+ a special keyboard- or connection-type.
