I have very strange problem with my Lenovo keyboard. This problem arrived suddenly, so I think there is some problem with my keyboard hardware. But maybe it is possible to fix it in software.
Following problem:
When I press the right shift key, I see very strange behavior in different applications. So, after I checked this with a "showkey" application.
When I press the right shift key during the showkey application is running, then I get following output:
keycode 54 press
keycode 119 press
keycode 54 release
keycode 119 release
...so, it looks like when I press this key then the keyboard send signal of 2 keys - keycode 54 (right shift key) and
keycode 119 (pause key).
Is there any possibility to fix this problem?

I solved this problem with following entry to .Xmodmap file:
keycode 127 = NoSymbol
This disables the the "Pause" key in general.
PS: It is a little bit strange that the application showkey and xev shows different keycode values for the same keys
