Steps to reproduce:

Does this also happen when you switch to the nv or vesa driver? What about using plain kbd/mouse instead of evdev?
If this is a bug triggered by the nvidia driver, I can't fix it.

that bug is not reproductible. it happens sometimes. i think it might be due to the rt kernel. but i am not sure.

you might better close the bug. i will reopen it if i have moreinformation or if it happens again

Did you try another kernel eg.the ARCH one and not getting this?
