Thomas:

         My keyboard mapping is US and as a secondary mapping is LATAM, 
the configuration
is in the xorg.conf, i did not remap any key with xmodmap. But the 
problem happen even if
i remove LATAM and the option to change within keymaps (CTRL+SHIFT) from 
the configuration.

         I start the X manually so no .xsession or .Xclients config at 
all. My .xinitrc at the moment of writing this is only one line:

exec fvwm2
