[X2Go-User] OT: key modifiers

[Ulrich Sibiller]

Funny that the solution described here
(https://askubuntu.com/questions/493404/ubuntu-14-04-vmware-6-left-ctrl-and-right-shift-not-functioning)
also covers the problem with Caps_Lock I examined yesterday. But I
doubt the mentioned fix will help for the nx problem.

After using this, (and after closing down horizon), I find all my modifier keys are gone, ALT, CTRL no longer do anything.  I don't know how to recover without logoff/logon.  As you can imagine, this is not really acceptable.  Anyone know how to fix this?
