I'm affected by this bug, I'm also affected by this other one:

Running 11.10 on an HP Pavilion dm1 laptop with synaptics touchpad.

Both issues are resolved by disabling the option to "disable touchpad while typing", which makes me think that these 2 problems are inherently related. Perhaps when the 2 "syndameon" processes go out of sync, one of them starts eating up keystrokes thinking that the touch pad is in use?
