While playing with a new AMD Athlon64 X2 3800+ (i386) the keyboard goes
wild for 10 (20?) seconds, behaves normally for 10 (20?) seconds, and
then goes wild again: when "wild", every keypress results in a random
number of repeats, e.g.:
$ pppsss aaxxxuuuuuuuuuuu
bash: pppsss: command not found
$
$
$
$
$
$
$
$
Upgrading Xorg to xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.45 did not help.
Booting with "nosmp" seems to fix it. And this _seems_ to fix it too:
taskset -p 1 `ps axo comm,pid|awk '$1=="X"{print $2}'`
I haven't seen this problem on the console.
The taskset work-around does not work when PnP OS is set to true in the
BIOS. I've compared kernel messages with- and without PnP set to true
but didn't see any interesting difference though.
The 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp kernel shows the same problem but the taskset
fix doesn't work there. Also, that kernel has the "LOC" interrupt
completely gone wild for both CPUs and occasionally crashes so lets
forget about that.
memory is good (1TB disk copy/md5summing + 150 kernel builds did not
reveal any problem). kernel has no modules, no proprietary drivers,
compiled with "gcc32" (3.2.3 20030502) instead of 4. An earlier
reported hangcheck/nanosleep/clock problem is gone right now for some
unknown reason.

This is probably the same problem as the earlier one you reported. If
you take a look at bugzilla, you'll see that the normal manifestation
is messed up key repeat rates...

New food for bugzilla #5105 (I'll stick it there too). stracing xclock
on the system with _zero_ load shows time warps and even time going
backward! The xclock itself occasionally gets stuck and then jumps
multiple seconds at once.
There are many other anomalies, e.g. the Xorg screenblank should operate
after 300 seconds but it does much earlier, seemingly with a random
interval: 15 seconds, 38 second, 50 seconds.
system wall clock seems ok now which is kind of surprising.
booting with nosmp fixes it but that's no fun anymore.
There should be a lot of people noticing these kind of anomalies: it is
not a recent regression but it seems to show up only on AMD Athlon64 X2
(SMP), for both i386 and x86_64.
