[OT] X11 Key mapping



I'm having a few problems when running an X application on my Solaris 5.6
box and displaying on my Potato X session.

Namely, when I press and release the right shift key (Shift_R) xev reports
that I'm pressing the key pad "*" key.

KeyPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x3800001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x0, time 466910596, (74,97), root:(676,463),
    state 0x10, keycode 62 (keysym 0xffaa, KP_Multiply), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 characters:  "*"

KeyRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x3800001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x0, time 466911171, (74,97), root:(676,463),
    state 0x11, keycode 62 (keysym 0xffe2, Shift_R), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""


An X app running locally on the box does the right thing:
KeyPress event, serial 16, synthetic NO, window 0x3800001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x0, time 466910596, (74,97), root:(676,463),
    state 0x10, keycode 62 (keysym 0xffe2, Shift_R), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 16, synthetic NO, window 0x3800001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x0, time 466911171, (74,97), root:(676,463),
    state 0x11, keycode 62 (keysym 0xffe2, Shift_R), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

Any idea on how I can fix this?
