Period key no longer working

Hi,

I'm running Arch on an Eee PC 900; it's been going smoothly for months now, but recently my period key has been acting up; I'd hit it and it'd appear a little delayed, so most of my sentences ended with a space, then a period; Today, it's a lot worse, if I hit period, it doesn't appear until about 3 minutes later, and then all of the periods I've hit appear at once, so I end up with a long string of periods randomly; If I hit shift while the periods are appearing, I get greater-than signs.

Umm, while I was typing this, it started working again (sort of). It's usable, but still just a little bit laggy. This effect occurs whether I'm in X or at the command line. I'm wondering if it's an issue with the keyboard driver for the EeePC, but if it is I'm not sure how I'd even reinstall the driver.

Thanks in advance for any help with this craziness. tongue
