CTRL and ALT works as SHIFT?
5
A few hours ago, I installed Ubuntu 14.04 alongside Windows 7.
Everything went fine, installed all my games and programs. But, then I realized that ALT + TAB, CTRL+ALT+T key combinations (as well as many others) do not work.
This is really annoying since I like to use ALT + TAB for multitasking. Anyways, I realized that they were mapped as SHIFT because as you know, if you hold SHIFT and press any key, it will be in CAPS. So that's what happens when I press CTRL or ALT.
It's a custom-built desktop. I'm using a GAMDIAS USB keyboard.

Install driver from https://bitbucket.org/Swoogan/aziokbd
sudo apt-get install mercurial build-essential linux-headers-generic dkms
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/Swoogan/aziokbd
cd aziokbd
sudo ./install.sh dkms
Add kernel option to grub to prevent
usbhidfrom being used for this keyboard. Append:
usbhid.quirks=0x0c45:0x7603:0x4
to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULTin/etc/default/grub.
Example:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash usbhid.quirks=0x0c45:0x7603:0x4"
Update grub
sudo update-grub
Reboot
References:
- CTRL and ALT keys mapped to Shift for some reason
- dkms Installed kernel module but not working after reboot
- Prevent usbhid from claiming USB device

What do you mean by appending it? should I use&,;or just add it directly. I'm sorry if this is naive. It would be great if you could show how the line looks for you.
