I've just gotten a new laptop at work with WinXP, and put Cygwin and XF86 on it. I'm currently running the latest as of today (4.3.0-25 server).
I've disabled my capslock key and turned it into a control key with this registry hack: REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout] "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,1d,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00 My caps lock key correctly works as a control key in all windows applications, and xev shows it acts just like Control_L. In xterm, I can use the caps lock key as a control key. Except, each time I press it, my arrow keys toggle between sending the correct "^[[A" and the strange "^[[1;2A" (for up; left, down and right have similar changes). Apparently, it's toggling the cursor keys into "shifted" state, because that's the "shifted" up arrow key. This only affects the arrow keys, and page up/page down (which are toggled into scrolling). It seems like there's a bug somewhere tracking the caps lock, since I seem to have correctly disabled caps lock for number keys, but not arrows. -- Alan Shutko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - I am the rocks. I'm not even going to ignore that.
