Thank you Chris (comment 19) and Norbert (comment 39)! This also solved MY problem.

@Jimmy IMHO It seems that GNOME developers are going to make the most simple/stupid desktop environment today and in near future. They removed all options from Keyboard Layout Options window (it was under gnome-control-center keyboard in Ubuntu 12.04). They think that gnome-tweak-tool is a good place for them.

In response to #35. - Install Ubuntu 13.10 - Go to keyboard layout settings - Find 'CapsLock Key Behavior' and set to eg Make CapsLock an additional ctrl or Make CapsLock an additional backspace. The last point worked for years, up until Ubuntu 13.10. The option to set CapsLock key behaviour is no longer there, and there appears to be no replacement.

This only happens when the keyboard layout is changed.

[Bug 1215826] Re: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl
When I was using 13.04, I had CapsLock for layout change. In 13.10 I changed it to ctrl+space, since CapsLock was not available. Now I have ctrl+space for switching between [English, Russian, Ukrainian] AND CapsLock for switching between [Currently active in indicator, English]. So if I choose Russian in indicator, I can press CapsLock to switch English/Russian (but the change is not reflected in indicator). If I choose English, nothing happens when I press CapsLock (or maybe it switches to another English) This is even more confusing after locking (ctrl+alt+L) session. Consider the use-case: 1. I choose Russian in indicator (either with mouse or pressing ctrl+space) 2. I press CapsLock, so I’m now using English while indicator still shows Russian 3. I press ctrl+alt+L, to lock session, so now I see a password field (with asterisks, of course), and another language indicator (to the right from the password field) 4. Now I cannot switch using ctrl+space. I can switch using CapsLock but only between Russian (since it was active in indicator before) and English, and I have no idea about what my current layout really is :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I believe problem lies that it actually change layout but not input language. if you have selected primary language you can't switch it unless manually set it via mouse in indicator-keyboard or use keyboard shortcut select previous layout So here is how it works right now, my main shortcut next layout - R SHIFT and R SHIFT + L SHIFT - previous layout. After pressing both shifts I can switch my input language just fine with just R SHIFT and if I press both shifts again, it will stop working. Why I think it change layout but not input language? If I press both shifts and press . - dot on numpad it enters , on both languages, while should do this on Russian keyboard only. Pressing again previous layout, will give me English keyboard and I can't change input language with just SHIFT (next layout), but it correctly enter . on numpad when I press it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1215826] Re: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl
My experience after the first few minutes, where it was in flux, sometimes operating as Caps_Lock and sometimes as BackSpace, was that it settled down to acting as BackSpace (as configured) but would not repeat—viz., holding backspace deleted many characters, while holding caps lock deleted only one character. I've found that using xmodmap to remap the caps lock key's keycode to BackSpace works to make it repeat correctly. For me, the Caps Lock key is keycode 66; I believe this may vary from machine to machine. If that be so, you can find out what it is for you with ``xev`` (run it, press the caps lock key, look for the keycode part). xmodmap -e 'keycode 66 = BackSpace' I believe that putting the keycode 66 = BackSpace line in ~/.Xmodmap is supposed to fix it automatically on login; I don't know as I haven't closed my session since applying this fix.

[Bug 1215826] Re: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl
Dmitry, I did 2 things to try to make this work, but I'm not sure which one helped (thought uninstalling indicator-keyboard clearly was one of them): 1. Using dconf-editor, change org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.xkb-options to ['ctrl:nocaps'] 2. Add `XKBOPTIONS=ctrl:nocaps` to `/etc/default/keyboard` then run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh console-setup`, as indicated here: http://www.noah.org/wiki/CapsLock_Remap_Howto -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1215826] Re: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl
I cannot solve this issue by uninstalling indicator-keyboard. I think, it is not the problem in indicator-keyboard, because there were changes in keyboard settings menu. Earlier, i had many options - http://xbb.uz/files/illustrations/soft/os/ubuntu/12.10-layout1.jpg But now i have only 2 shortcuts - http://ctrlv.in/228499 And it is quite strange. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Nikolay, I believe there is a way to turn the layout switching back on.

Some additional information: I mentioned that the functionality seems to work for a few brief seconds, but actually it appears that the change is triggered the first time (or few times) you press caps lock. It works, and then reverts to the normal Caps Lock function. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug also affects me on my 2 machines. My Caps Lock behaviour is broken(sometimes it act like a Compose key as I configured, sometimes it just work as usual Caps Lock), but what's more important is that I can't switch keyboard layout with any keyboard shortcut i assign. I've tried to uninstall indicator-keyboard, but this not only didn't help me, but also broke Region Language from System Settings application. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
