Bug#470524: xserver-xorg-input-kbd: Super_L doesn't release sometimes.



Package: xserver-xorg-input-kbd
Version: 1:1.2.2-3
Severity: important

Sometimes X doesn't seem to get the release event for the Super L (win
key):

For example, when I type only 't', my windows manager launches a terminal
which it should only launch on SuperL+'t'.

The only thing I can do then is killing X.

This problem started last weekend after upgrading xserver-xorg-input-kbd to unstable and does happen every 2 days here.
I use this key a lot in a key combination to change the virtual Desktop.

Please note that I do not thing that this is a hardware problem, since I
had this problem already a few month ago. I reverted back to the
xserver-xorg-input-kbd in testing and the problem was gone.
