We are having a problem with the left shift key running SRS on Ubuntu 8.04. The left shift key is unresponsive although the right shift key is ok.

Specifically what xev shows when I hit the left shift key is

FocusOut event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor

FocusOut event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer

FocusIn event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor

KeymapNotify event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  2   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0


When I hit the right shift key I get what I expect

 KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x29, subw 0x0, time 3481901445, (106,57), root:(135,659),
    state 0x0, keycode 233 (keysym 0xffe2, Shift_R), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2400001,
    root 0x29, subw 0x0, time 3481901573, (106,57), root:(135,659),
    state 0x1, keycode 233 (keysym 0xffe2, Shift_R), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False


Since the left shift is not giving keypress/code it doesn't seem like xmodmap will help.

How do we get the left shift key working?
