I can add that on my PC (tower), the group and indicator have correct values for CAPS lock and NUM lock, except on startup. the problem seems more frequent with laptops.
the group and indic are simply got by using xkl_engine_get_state(). the debug (group : 0 -> 0 ; indic : 0 -> 0) shows the previous values and the current one after an XKLAVIER_STATE event came from X, we can see that they are identical. -- Cairo-dock is unable to get CAPS Lock and NumLck values https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/476842 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Cairo- Dock Team, which is the registrant for Cairo-Dock Plug-ins.
