Hi,

since nobody answer my question, I search for this bug again and found
this bugfix. (http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.bugs.dist/browse_thread/thread/044db1f25ff8e642/4e34e7cb4757e982)
I found some more people with the same problem.

The patch was not applied in the current SVN version.
To fix my problem it is only important to take the sdl.c bugfix like:

RCS file: /sources/qemu/qemu/sdl.c,v
retrieving revision 1.42
diff -u -r1.42 sdl.c

         break;
     case 0x45: /* num lock */
     case 0x3a: /* caps lock */
-        /* SDL does not send the key up event, so we generate it */
-        kbd_put_keycode(keycode);
-        kbd_put_keycode(keycode | 0x80);
+    	if (ev->type == SDL_KEYUP)
+		kbd_put_keycode(keycode | 0x80);
+	else kbd_put_keycode(keycode);	
         return;
     }
So I think that the button event was send twice without this fix. 
As "Ricardo Ribalda Delgado" told. 

This patch works fine for me.

Thanks,

Gregor Glomm
