Package: xserver-xorg-input-kbd
Version: 1:1.3.1-1
Severity: important


On this Thinkpad x24 / KDE / running SCIM, I am frequently finding that 
the keyboard seems to have gotten itself re-mapped in the middle of my 
typing or using the keyboard to navigate (I frequently eschew mouse for 
keyboard navigation) and I don't know what I might have done to cause 
it. The most frequent situation: suddenly PgUp and PgDn start cycling 
between the tabs of my mrxvt terminal window, for instance, rather then 
scrolling in 'less' as they have always done before. The symptoms 
sometimes express themselves in other ways, it is a bit confusing 
because it is not consistent.

Sometimes repeated presses of Ctrl-Shift gets me out of trouble. I seem 
to have had at least one xserver crash a couple days ago, while this was 
happening. (No logs, sorry....)

The details are so fuzzy that I hesitate to issue a bug report, but this 
happens *a lot* on this machine, and it started very recently.

This bug appears to have gone away with a recent xorg upload, though
the package named in this bug report (xserver-xorg-input-keyboard) does
not seem to have changed.

As originator, I am closing it.
