Hello all,

I have been looking into fixing the fact that CAPS-Lock and NUM-Lock dont 
work in DirectVNC and have a few questions.

X appears to treat both num-lock and shift lock as modifier keys, while
dfb currently does not. This means that they are not part of the
modifier bitmap. Is this an oversight or is there a reason behind it?

Also, I understand that while the shift key being pressed results in a
change of kb_table, caps-lock requires individual action depending on
the key being pressed (numbers remain numbers for example and are not
shifted). The question is, should this modification be done within DFB,
or should I modifiy the ascii values I get from dfb depending on the
state of the caps/num lock keys at the application level?

Also, what about the led state? 

If you want me to, I can add the three modifier keys (num, caps, scroll)
and look into led handling.

Cheers,

till
