"i am also having this problem after upgrading to hardy - note lack of
shift key and hence capitals as the bug has hit. running vmware player
2.0.3 causes the problem. no problem inside a vm, but no alt, shift or
control outside. can't run a terminal as this crashes as soon as
keyboard is pressed."

Ditto except I can run xterm from the deskbar applet. Gnome-terminal crashes 
with:
gnome-terminal[7450]: segfault at 0000001c eip b7938275 esp bf80cd80 error 4

I'm using the 'ati' driver (not the proprietary one). I used the any-any
patch for vmware-server. Running setxkbmap from xterm does seem to fix
the problem.

dmesg output attached.
