Could you try xserver-xorg-input-evdev currently in experimental
(1:1.1.5-1)?

Which xserver-xorg-core are your running ? 2:1.1.1-20 ? Do you see any
interesting difference in Xorg.0.log when switching from input+kbd to evdev?

The bug could be caused by vserver then. I know almost nothing about
vserver. Is it supposed to be stable? Do you have a way to disable some
vserver features to try to locate the problem more precisely?

Thanks,
