I'm using Ubuntu 16.06 and I'm having the following problem. Left and right arrows navigation through text doesn't work anywhere, nor console no any editor or browser.



What is suspicious, when I'm running xev, I see the following. When I press arrows up and down:

that is, legit key press and release events, and when I press arrows left and right:

Looks like some weird mappings are in place, but where are they set and how can I reset them?
