*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 196277 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196277 I do not see how this is a duplicate of bug #196277. For my setup with a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 on an iBook G4, it seems that CapsLock is not working as a modifier because even though I hold the key down, it is sending the KeyRelease event immediately after sending the KeyPress event. So it seems that it is mapping correctly, but perhaps the keyboard driver (or maybe Xorg) is not correctly noticing that the CapsLock is held down. Here's the output from xev; notice the two events have the exact same time values: KeyPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x361, root 0x114, subw 0x0, time 41882227, (64,177), root:(80,298), state 0x2, keycode 66 (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x361, root 0x114, subw 0x0, time 41882227, (64,177), root:(80,298), state 0x2, keycode 66 (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False PropertyNotify event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x361, atom 0x170 (XKLAVIER_STATE), time 41882235, state PropertyNewValue Here's my uname info: Linux smallfry 2.6.28-6-powerpc #20-Ubuntu Fri Apr 17 08:30:40 UTC 2009 ppc GNU/Linux Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? -- caps as additional ctrl key just disables caps on g4 powerbook 12" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 99625] Re: caps as additional ctrl key just disables caps on g4 powerbook 12"
confirmed on 8.04.1 hardy with Apple PowerBook G4 Nothing I do with xmodmap will make the CapsLock key act as Control. I can disable it from acting as CapsLock; I can't enable it as Control. I have no problem using xmodmap to swap the "alt/option" and "command" keys, making the "command" key perform as "alt" and vice-versa. -- caps as additional ctrl key just disables caps on g4 powerbook 12" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I commented in bug 196277 as well, but I see the same behavior as EvanCarroll.

I had no such problem with Gutsy, everything worked fine. With Hardy, the caps-lock key functions as control with said option, but the light still toggles.
