Shift key not working

Post by cberst »

NOTE: This was previously posted under the subject: "Cap-lock key not working" which was incorrect .I am reposting with the correct problem which is the shift key.

Hello,
Has anyone experienced a problem with the shift key not working when a 64-bit Windows 7 VM is placed in full screen mode?
I have had this problem for quite some time and the latest release (4.0.8R71778) didn't seem to fix it.
I had read somewhere that scim-bridge-client-qt, qt4, and gtk needed to be installed so I did that but the problem persists.
It is also intermittent. On occasion the shift key will function properly but most of the time it does not.
Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Chris
