That's sounds similar to the problems I've had, due to the connection between
the ADB cable and the keyboard. From what I understand, I need to buy a new
cable, keyboard, or both. But, I've found that by jamming a pen or pencil in
between the side of the keyboard and where the cable plugs in that it stops
the problem, at least temporarily. Of course, I don't necessarily recommend
you try that. It might just make a bad situation worse.
