My right control key on my keyboard sticks. I hit it accidentally often enough that I'd like to make it do absolutely nothing when it's hit. Is this possible?

1 Answer

Use xev to find out what the keycode is. My Control_R is 105. Then run this:

xmodmap -e 'keycode 105 = NoSymbol'

If that works, head into the start-up applications dialogue and add a new entry to run that command on boot.
