So, after trying every combination of options I could think of to no
effect, as well as several reboots, I gave up.  However, after rebooting
the *keyboard itself*, the beeps are gone!  So it's possible that this
is a firmware bug in the keyboard and not in ubuntu.  I will update if I
discover anything else.

This is still an issue for me. 
I'm running 8.04 (up to date) on a HP DV 1700 series laptop. When I use the GUI 
to swap the ctrl and caps keys, the key marked caps lock is still the only 
one that is triggering the LED. Actually, I ran the command 

xmodmap -e clear lock -e add lock = Caps_Lock

as suggested above, and that has fixed it for now (yet to restart).

On another computer running 9.10 (no way am I putting that on my laptop,
I'm sticking with what I *know* works), the problem does not occur.
(And, previously, running, I think it was 7.10 on my laptop, it didn't
occur either.)

If the xmodmap command sticks after restarting, I'll edit this.
Otherwise I'll try other suggestions in the thread and comment on them
too.

It doesn't stick. But, rather than mess around with config files, I've got 
another work around. Put the command:
xmodmap -e clear lock -e add lock = Caps_Lock
into the sessions thingy (System- Preferences - Sessions - Add, the name is 
whatever, the command is the one above etc.). 

Also after switching through the GUI, but before running the xmodmap
command, ctrl-alt-backspace has to use the 'real' ctrl key. ctrl-alt-
arrow (to switch desktops) has to use the 'new' (formally caps) ctrl
key.

After running the xmodmap command, the 'new' ctrl key works for
everything.

Not for me, although there is a weird thing that xmodmap mappings now
only apply to the keyboards that are plugged in - remap, and then plug
an external keyboard and it'll behave like you never ran xmodmap on the
new keyboard. Remap afterwards, and it behaves like you expect. Are you
possibly seeing something along those lines?

This is a work laptop that I take to and from home; both locations have
a USB keyboard and every time I hotplug, I am required to unset and
reset (through System|Preferences|Keyboard|Layouts|Other Options...) my
ctrl/caps swap and my compose-key-position setting.

I should probably file a separate bug about this.

Jodo, .bash_profile is only evaluated for bash shell sessions - so
settings there won't affect other Gnome or KDE applications. And
rc.local is used for system-wide settings; so it is executed as root.
setxkbmap configures individual users' settings. So you need to run that
command as the user you log in with.

I recommend adding an entry to your Sessions Preferences under System 
Settings  Sessions. That will work for Gnome. And there are similar
procedures for KDE, XFCE, and others.

[Bug 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl

2008-05-01 Thread Robert Lange
I'll throw my experience with this bug into the hat.  I just upgraded
from Gutsy, in which this feature worked correctly, to Hardy, in which
the bug appeared.  Hardy is currently up to date.

First, I reverted my Gnome keyboard preferences to the default.  I tried
Jay Finger's suggestion of placing MountainX's xmodmap instructions into
the ~/.xmodmaprc file and letting Gnome load that file.  However, while
this swapped the caps lock and left ctrl keys, like the Gnome keyboard
preferences option, it *failed* to correctly control the caps lock
light.

Then, I deleted the ~/.xmodmaprc file and tried Taylor Venable's
suggestion of altering the xorg.conf file, effectively making this a
global setting for all users.  When I next restarted X, at the gdm login
screen I verified that the physical left ctrl key was now both
activating caps lock and setting the caps lock light correctly, and that
the physical caps lock key was not.  So far so good...  I logged into
Gnome and opened a terminal.  Now, pressing the physical left ctrl key
toggles the caps lock light, but it still behaves as a ctrl key!
Likewise, the physical caps lock key toggles caps lock, but does not
alter the caps lock light!

It is important to note that at this time, there was no ~/.xmodmaprc
file, and the Gnome keyboard preferences were set to *default*.  Let me
repeat that the Gnome *default* settings were overriding the Xorg server
configuration settings! (Note: It is possible that some crufty setting
in gconf or something is causing this to happen, but short of blowing
away all of my dot files and directories and starting clean, I don't
know how to verify this one way or the other.)

My final attempt, that succeeded in working around the problem, is the
brilliant synthesis of the two previous solutions.  I used the xorg.conf
option *and* the ~/.xmodmaprc file.  The xorg.conf setting caused X to
behave correctly in gdm and caused X to show the correct caps lock light
status when I logged into Gnome, while the ~/.xmodmaprc file caused
Gnome to correctly swap the effects of the caps lock and left ctrl keys.

Obviously what is happening here is that a bug in the Xorg server is
hard-coding the configured caps lock key to the caps lock light.
However, it does seem that Gnome's settings are contradicting the
behavior of the configured keyboard options in xorg.conf and
substituting Gnome's idea of what the key map is.

2008-05-01 Thread Robert Lange
I just created a brand new account, and verified that my observations in
comment 42 are still happening in a new account.  That is, using the
xorg.conf workaround, with all defaults for Gnome keyboard preferences
and *no* ~/.xmodmaprc file, the default behavior of Gnome overrides the
xorg.conf configured keyboard option, but the caps lock light respects
that keyboard option.

So, this is definitely default Gnome behavior, and not cruft in one of
my dot files.

Dapper, so there *may* be cruft, but I've been pretty good about
revisiting my dotfiles.

2008-04-24 Thread Taylor Venable
I have noticed this also with swapping control and caps lock.  Another
workaround is to enable this option specifically in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
by adding the following line to your keyboard Device section:

Option XkbOptions ctrl:swapcaps

This illuminates the LEDs correctly, but applies system-wide, of course.

[Bug 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl

2008-04-21 Thread Jay Finger
As an alternative to what MountainX described, name the file
~/.xmodmaprc.  The first time that file is present at login the user
will be asked if they want to load the file.  There is an option to not
be asked again.  Check that, select the file to load, and from there on
out the ~/.xmodmaprc will be loaded at login for that user.

Pro:  this can be a per-user thing, not requiring screwing around with
global files.

Con: since the file isn't loaded until after you log in, this means that
during the login window the ctrl/capslock keys have not yet been
swapped.  This may be confusing depending on the users of the machine.

If using a version of gnome that doesn't automatically load the file,
you could probably achieve the same effect by creating a ~/.gnomerc
that invokes xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc.  Actually that's what I did at
first, and then was pleasantly surprised when gnome recognized the file
and did the right thing.

This was behavior was verified on a system running Hardy Beta that is
completely up to date as I write this comment.

the ubuntu team appreciate your concern, this behaviour is not
constructive though, the distribution gets hundred bugs every week and
there is a really small team working on those, there is lot of bug about
hardware not working correctly, applications crashing, etc so the work
has to be prioritized. You will understand that those issues get an
higher priority though? There is many people not counting there hours,
working late or during weekend for free and doing their best, now do you
think it's fair to have those comment again them because there is too
much to do and they didn't fix your specific issue yet?

Sebastien: Upstream does think this bug doesn't matter.  Really, how
hard would it be to insert the equivalent of remove Lock = Caps_Lock
before remapping caps lock?  It probably won't take much longer than
insisting that this is not a gnome bug (even though it could trivially
be worked around there).  I'd actually be willing to familiarize myself
enough with the gnome-control-center code to fix this, except that it
wouldn't get in anyway, since the option is not on by default and
therefore not a priority for hardy.

I think I was wrong about libxklavier.  I don't actually know where the
changes to the keyboard settings are applied, it's probably some gconf
backend, who knows?  That's not the point, the point is that if I can
work around the issue by typing xmodmap -e remove Lock = Caps_Lock
before reassigning Caps Lock, then it must be trivial to fix - if you

still around 4 months after the initial report.

[Bug 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl

2008-04-03 Thread MountainX
I found a workaround. I'm using Hardy beta.

Do not use gnome's keyboard control (Ubuntu System  Preferences  Keyboard  
Layout Options). 
Instead follow the example in man xmodmap as explained below.

NOTE: before doing this, undo any changes in Keyboard layout options.
Put the options back to defaults in gnome's keyboard control.

And, if you have done anything advanced to try to work around this issue, 
remove those modifications too. For example, the following is NOT needed so if 
you are using it, remove it (may require a restart):
 xmodmap -e clear lock -e add lock = Caps_Lock

Put the following in a text file.

!
! Swap Caps_Lock and Control_L
!
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
remove Control = Control_L
keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
add Lock = Caps_Lock
add Control = Control_L

save the above as /etc/SwapCapsCtrl.kmap

then, from a terminal, run:
xmodmap /etc/SwapCapsCtrl.kmap


To make the change permanent, do this:
edit /etc/rc.local
add the following before the last line that says 'exit 0'
sudo loadkeys /etc/SwapCapsCtrl.kmap


In addition, this solves my problems with tsclient.
