The ever so irritating toshiba-keyboard-fuckup. 
Put the following in a file, chmod +x it and load it from ~/.xinitrc
when you start X. You need to install xkbset though. 

if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/xkbset ]; then
       xkbset m
       xkbset exp =m
       xkbset sl 5
       xkbset exp =sl
       xkbset -f slowaccept
       xkbset exp =f =slowaccept
fi
