It works in KDE programms and in Netscape Messenger. Ctrl-arrows works also
in xedit. I think it's a problem of my LyX configuration.

xev shows keysym "Shift_L" if �I press left Shift and "Right" if �I press
right arrow. So everything seems ok. Before I start fighting with xmodmap, I
will try to find the reason of the problem, which can only be one of the two
possibilities: 1. that I messed up my system unconsciously, 2. something has
changed in 1.1.6-fix2 compared to the previous versions of LyX.

I deinstalled the SuSE xforms and installed xforms 88.3 from the LyX download
page with no effect.
Well compiling from the source is not the first thing I want do try. �I'm a
"normal" user without technical background and usually have no luck with
compiling from sources. But I will try, if I find no better way.
Thanks anyway
