    | Jan 27 10:58:58 localhost kernel: evbug.c: Event. Dev: usb-0000:00:1f.2-2.2/input0, Type: 2, Code: 0, Value: -1

    This is a problem. The workaround :
        $ su
        # rmmod evbug
        # rm /lib/modules/2.6.0-1-686/kernel/drivers/input/evbug.ko

    Note that each time you upgrade the kernel-image package a new copy of
    evbug.ko will be provided. Remove the new one when that occurs. Also
    check the BTS to see when this issue is correctly resolved.

Yes, Java is so bulletproofed that to a C programmer it feels like being in a
straightjacket, but it's a really comfy and warm straightjacket, and the world
would be a safer place if everyone was straightjacketed most of the time.
