[gdm-list] working around a broken shift key

[Yan Seiner <yan seiner com>]

Is there a way to set up a global xmodmap that works for gdm?

I'm trying to work around a broken shift key (it gets stuck in the down 
position), so I'm using

xmodmap -e "clear shift"
xmodmap -e "add shift = Shift_L"

in my users' .xinitrc

The problem is that if the shift key gets stuck on the login prompt, 
noone can log in....

So I need to turn it off for gdm as well.

I've tried adding the above lines in

/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

but it seems that it fails as X isn't running yet.

So...  Where do I put the above lines so that they take effect with gdm 
as well?

Thanks,
