[SOLVED] Shift + Left-Right Arrow keys combination is not working.

'Left shift + left or right arrow' and 'right shift + left arrow' combinations are not working but 'right shift + right arrow' is working. (shift + up down arrows also working)

These combinations were working properly. I tried showkey utility and it detects all keys individually but not combinations. When I press left shift + left or right arrow program gives only left shift's scan code.

There are two things that I suspect:

I dont know is there anything that uses keyboard queue directly.

And second virtualbox modules. I blacklisted all virtualbox modules but problem still continues.

Re: [SOLVED] Shift + Left-Right Arrow keys combination is not working.

I solved the problem but i dont know how exactly

I hit combination of "ctrl, shift, fn, alt, arrow" keys I dont know which one and right now it is working. I guess somehow I locked something before. (Or it is a hardware problem)
