[Bug 379459] [NEW] x11vnc repeats keystroke infinitely (regression)

[Andrew]

Public bug reported:

x11vnc occasionally will start infinitely repeating a keystroke. The
only fix seems to kill the vnc session, go to the computer locally and
hit the repeating key on the keyboard to make it stop.

This is a very severe but as things like the delete key or enter key
repeating are extremely dangerous.

I am using these settings for x11vnc:
-forever -xrandr -bg -nobell -auth $AUTHFILE -usepw -rfbauth $RFBAUTH -o $LOGFILE -input KMBCF -noxdamage -display :0.0 -xkb -nomodtweak -norepeat -1

I added the "-norepeat -1" to try to fix the problem, but it does not
fix it.

x11vnc version: 0.9.3.dfsg.1-1ubuntu2

This never happened to me in intrepid, just started happening with
Jaunty (amd64 build)
