I'm having a very weird behavior of both shift keys of my laptop native keyboard that is driving me crazy.
Basically when held pressed, it's like it's being released/pressed again automatically randomly. This is a killer when selecting text because it loses the selection and selected other random text.
Note that this does impact an USB keyboard when connected to the same PC.
I am running 14.04 with LXDE and really have no clue on what's going on, although this has been going on like this for a long while (I am a patient guy).
Is there a way to fix this or maybe reinstall all the keyboard drivers clean, so that my life can go back to normal?
Thanks (really)
