The symptom can randomly be one of these with each keypress : - Multiple characters to be generated for a single keypress. - No character to be generated for a keypress. - An other character to be generated for a keypress. - Shift and/or alt and/or ctrl can be locked, to unlock one has to press the key again. Example : Typing this : "There is a big problem with the keyboard under xorg." can return "thherechere iss a big pprlmih thhe yoaa uunrexorgg 7.3;" Upgrading the ports to 7.3_2 does not resolve the problem. No problem when using the consoles. >How-To-Repeat: Install and launch xorg, then open any application you want and use the keyboard. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:help
