There's probably some sort of control panel that will tell you what
keys your desktop has tied to particular desktop activities.  Look
in there for some function that has been bound to the Left Shift key,
and either remove that binding or rebind it to some more sensible
key.

If you do find that binding then it would be helpful to know what
desktop you're using and what that binding was.  On SLES 10
Gnome I think it was tied to some kind of "Desktop Search"
function.

Ignore my last reply. You are right, its a keybinding. Ubuntu 8.04 binds keycode "e5" to "search". I was thrown off since gnome-keybinding-properties mostly displays keysyms. The few hex entries I presumed were the nummeric keysyms that xmodmap displays in hex. In fact they are hex for the keycodes, which xmodmap displays in decimal.

It seems strange to me that they would define a binding as a keycode an inherently non-portable item, instead of a logical keysym.
