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.

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.

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.

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.

[Bug 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl
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. -- Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173350 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 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl
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. -- Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173350 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 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl
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.

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". -- Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173350 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 173350] Re: Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl
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. -- Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173350 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
