Weird. Is that driver issue only relevant to hardware keyboards?
Because ctrl and alt both work fine in Hacker's Keyboard. Does which
soft keyboard you have active affect the behaviour of the hardware
keyboard?

http://source.android.com/tech/input/keyboard-devices.html mentions
Android key codes for left and right versions of control, alt, shift
and meta.

I admit to knowing very little about this, and would like to learn
more.
