Same thing happened to me. I couldn't hold down backspace in Terminal and get it to repeat. Went to Prefs->Keyboard and unchecked/checked the repeat option. Back to Terminal and it worked. My Ubuntu box is a synergy client of an XP box. Have no other issues with it though. I also have an Nvidia graphics card.
