Well I've just seen an FC box (6? 7?) running a 2.6.18-ish which reliably experiences the same problem (randomly stuck keys), so I doubt very much it's CFS. Basically keys will somewhat randomly repeat 6-7 times, mainly depending on how fast you're typing (the intern using the box typed somewhat slowly and didn't trigger it much, but when I borrowed his keyboard I could reliably trigger it once every 5 sec or so. Unfortunately I don't have access to that box anymore, so I can't really debug the problem.
