(please bottom-post if you can)
I installed the xorg-xev package to compare to what you're seeing. I
think the X11 keycodes are different from the codes actually sent by the
keyboard.
Can you post the output of typing the problem keys when running
$ sudo showkey
I have:
left-ctrl = 29
windows = 125
left-alt = 56
right-alt = 57
right-ctrl = 97
left-shift = 24
right-shift = 54
I think these are standard for all US keyboards.
That should confirm if the problem is with your keyboard (if the keys
show the same code) or in the driver (or somewhere else).
There's also the slight possibility that it's a kernel bug, which would
show up as repeating codes from showkey, since showkey is as close to
the kernel as possible.
