Well, I'm on openSUSE Linux, which is maybe not identical with Ubuntu
but at least it's not too different.
I just loaded Vim here in my Linux console, and when I hit Shift-Up,
Shift-Down, Shift-Left, Shift-Right, Shift-Ins or Shift-Del Vim sees the
same key without the Shift modifier. Shift-PgUp and Shift-PgDn it
doesn't see at all.
The best suggestion I can offer is to choose a different {lhs} for the
mappings. Maybe F5 to F8 because they are almost straight up from hjkl.
The resulting mappings would be as follows:
imap <F5> <esc>v<Left>
vmap <F5> <Left>
imap <F6> <esc>v<Down>
vmap <F6> <Down>
imap <F7> <Esc>v<Up>
vmap <F7> <Up>
imap <F8> <esc>v<Right>
vmap <F8> <Right>
Best regards,
Tony.
