Well I have a USB Logitech 250 keyboard.  For some reason when using xen 
patched 2.6.32.9 I can be typing on tty console and it will randomly 
repeat one of the characters that I type 3-4 times. (ie.  xm lisssst / 
sudddo -s etc.)  I tried using kbdrate settings but did not have any 
luck.  I don't think many people will have the issue though.
