Same problem for me since Feisty. Upgraded from Edgy to Feisty and then had to move to a different distribution. Totally unusable. Booted a Gutsy LiveCD and the problem was still there. Booted the LiveCD again later and it appeared to be randomly gone so I installed Gutsy only to reboot back into keyboard hell. Totally unusabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbble. ( <-- see what i mean? )

Does Ubuntu still have bounties? http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/bounties/ doesn't go anywhere anymore. I ( <-- again ) would *DEFINATELY* add to a bounty for this. I've been driving me crazy since Feisty was released. I'm really, really sad to have to leave Ubuntu with this machine again ....
