no idea. And if you reset the keyboard to en_US, does it still happen? Just to figure out the cause of the problem...

I have been following the unfolding saga of the "@2" pathogen with interest for some time now...

For those who might like to narrow the search for the cause>
A few weeks ago I created a Live USB (isohybrid) stick containing my old remaster of PCLOS 2009.1 (4Gig)  including a bunch of games - SSam/CWolf/WC111/ etc...
This was based on KDE 3.5.10 & kernel 2.6.26.tex3.  (I'm using it now... @@@@222222@@@@222)

There is no "@2" problem evident!!

This "@2" issue appears to be a KDE 4.X problem or a more recent 2.6.3+ kernel related instability.

I have today remastered a new build based on PCLOS 2010.12 + kernel 2.6.38.3-pclos1.bfs (KDE 4.6.2) and full updates + prefs...
Problem of X session restart on "2" & "@" keys on LiveUSB stick session no longer evident!
Happy Days!  ;D

Actually, I appear that the 2/@ issue I reported has solved itself - I no longer have the issue in my VMWare with Zen
