[SOLVED]ctrl keyboard shortcuts doesn't work anymore in any WM, X86_64

Hi,

since today, some keyboard short-cuts doesn't work any-more ( from any WM. (tested default KDE and xfce). I don't know what can cause this. I have upgraded pacman and aur and rebooted, but the the problem is still there. AFAIK there's no modifications made today in keyboard short-cuts.

I have had tested a live-cd of archlinux too, still no luck.

xev

all the keys alone are detected, but nothing happens on the missing short-cuts.

I lost by examples :

ctrl+c console
ctrl+z console
ctrl+d console
ctrl+a any
ctrl+c any
ctrl+x any
ctrl+v any
ctrl+f in firefox
ctrl+shift+t to open new tabs in konsole or gnome terminal
ctrl+alt+f3-7 tty

and some others...

some working ones :

alt+f4

Any clue ?

EDIT:
it's a hardware problem with the keyboard, another keyboard work as expected.
