i'm using a logitech internet navigator keyboard (logicink)
setxkbmap -print says:
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc/pc(pc104)+pc/us" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc104)" };
};
ralt+rshift prepends ctrl to all my strokes ... rctrl+rshift undoes
this. however, i still don't know where this mapping occurs, nor how to
remove it.
i tried toggling a few options (listed in /etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst)
via setxkbmap, but none seemed to have any affect. neither did switching
kbd models (logicink, pc104, pc102)
i know this is not e-related ... but was hoping someone might know =)
