I have trouble changing my right control to left shift. The solution I had working in 18.04 was xmodmad /home/kameranis/.Xmodmap
with the following contents.
keycode 105 = Shift_L
After upgrading to 22.04 that solution no longer works. Using xev
I can see that the change has been registered, but in all applications it still works as the right control key. Also tried using Input Remapper and it did not work. Any ideas on what might have changed?
