I seem to have trouble with the KDE and the Keyboard on my Lenovo G550. 
Randomly (it seems) the cursor will just jump from input to input. At 
first I thought I was accidentally striking the mouse pad thingie, so I 
disabled it and just use a little usb mouse, but the problem 
persisted.... so I just use Gnome instead. The only thing I wanted was 
basKetnotes anyway....
