Hi Petr,
I have the same problem with an Avocent SwitchView and Keytronic
keyboard, although it doesn't sound as bad as your problem. Occasionally
some keys just repeat until i press another key. I'm not quite sure what
kind of information Vojtech would like. The machine is 440BX based and
kernel is 2.6.0-test3-mm1
