[olpc-help] Keyboard issues - stuck keys, keys registering erroneously

[opus345]

Folks, I too have the dreaded keyboard problem that causes my ALT key to activate/stick when I use it or the Z, X, or C keys.  

I now realize I have had this problem since day one when I was attempting to enter my WEP which starts off with a HEX C.  The WEP key dialog has an ALT-C sequence which is used to cancel the dialog.  Yipes, I thought it was just my fat fingers on the little keyboard.

I have sent an email so service at laptopgiving.org and will call in the morning to get an RMA.  It would be nice if they could just send me a new keyboard and I could replace it.

I'm just having so much fun tinkering, I don't want to give it up for a month (or two) waiting for a repair/replacement part.

I would love for it to be software, but I don't want wait past the warranty period and then find out it is a hardware issue.
