When capslock is on, the letters o, p and m remain lowercase
unless the shift key is pressed.  These are the only letter
keys that do this.  They are also the only letter keys that
have altgr values assigned to them (the other altgr values
are assigned to non-letter keys)

When keymaps used to be in /usr/lib/kbd/keytables, I used to
be able to fix this by changing the cf.map file using the letter
"o" as an example, from:

   keycode 24 = o   O   section

to:

   keycode 24 = o
      altgr keycode 24 = section

I tried something similar by modifying 
/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwerty/cf.map.gz by adding:

   keycode 24 = o

above the line

   altgr keycode 24 = section

(and the corresonding lines for p and m).  That fixed
the annoying caps lock upper case problem, but the altgr
characters were printed as white blanks rather the the 
proper symbol.

This problem does not exist under Xorg, but I am usually
on the console, so if there were a fix available, it
would be appreciated greatly.
