I think I was the original plague of 5 reporter. I replaced the keyboard
but the problem did not go away, thought it's less frequent. I'm
suspecting radio interference or something like that. I have 4 things on
my desk doing bluetooth, plus lots of WiFi in the immediate area.

I've moved the logitech dongle so it sits 3" from keyboard and the 5s
are gone.

I am getting random brief lockups in Gnome, but I suspect that's
something else.

When F23 comes out, I'm doing a clean install.
