Are you sure your keyboard hasn't gone bad? Does it also maybe have a sleep button that could also cause the hibernate problem?
Good suggestion, but I checked that... If I am logged in as root (in tty1 for example or even in a terminal window within the KDE UI) the keyboard repeat does not happen, only happens as $USER (including with a newly created user)... I've also checked in my Windows partition, and everything is fine there.
The keyboard is a Cherry Linux keyboard, but I do not have the keyboard drivers installed in Linux at the moment... so none of the extra (Linux centric) keys are functioning.
I also have a cherry linux keyboard. The repeating / hanging problem I
could solve by disabling APIC in my BIOS. The strange thing is that it only happens with 10.1. When I was using 10.0 I didn't have any problem (with or without APIC enabled). Also in winXP the keyboard functions normally, very strange problem.....
