Because they are interfering, on my computer. If I hold ctrl, the mouse jumps randomly about if I try to move it. And then the ctrl key gets stuck in the 'on' position until I rapidly tap it to somehow get it reset. The same occurs for the shift key, which is very disturbing as it opens every possible right-click menu on my GUI. It's not the video card: I've used 2 different cards since the problem started. It's not the sound card either, as I have used 2 different sound cards as well. The problem started when I switched from 2.4 to 2.6, and seems confined entirely to the keyboard and mouse drivers. I have a USB mouse, and a PS/2 keyboard; both worked perfectly before 2.6. I run fvwm, and a recent compile of X.org. Video driver is "S3 Savage4" or a proprietary Nvidia one, take your pick. (The Nvidia card went and broke on me, S3 is on-board.) I don't think quoting the whole .config would be appreciated, but here's what seemed like it would be relavent. Is there any setting I might have not properly applied?
