I'm affected by this as well. I'm also experiencing slight short lockups approx every once in a minute when keyboard stops responding and mouse cursor stops moving (easily reproduced by moving cursor slowly in curcular pattern, after several circles it just 'hangs' and stops moving for a second, then works normally). I have a feeling these issues are related, perhaps I'll fileseparate bug report for this.

It seems to be more of a problem the faster I type, but that just increases the frequency of keypresses. Ocassionally while typing a key that I have pressed seems to stay "stuck down" and further input while that is going on is missed. The character repeats maybe 10 times, and then everything is back to normal. I don't have a way to reproduce this reliably, sometimes there are many hours between seeing it. One data point I do have is that it even happens when using synergy to control the raring box from a quantal machine, which is why I am reporting this against xorg and not the kernel where it might be construed as a USB or keyboard issue.
