Certain key combinations are not working
Solution 1:
To assess whether the keyboard is failing, you could use any application to monitor key presses. See options here, here, here:
screenkey
sudo evtest
xev
You can perform further evaluations by:
- Booting from a Live USB and/or Windows. If the problem stems from your Ubuntu configuration, these should work.
- Using another keyboard in your Ubuntu.
All this should suffice to give a clear answer.
