I don't think so, but I did select "enable deadkeys"...

I tried playing with that. Here's what's in XF86Config
XkbOptions "ctrl:nocaps"
XkbKeycodes "xfree86"
XkbTypes "default"
XkbCompat "default"
XkbSymbols "us(pc101)"
XkbGeometry "pc"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "pc101"
XkbLayout "us"
and in XF86Config-4
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc101"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
The strange thing is that the "ctrl:nocaps" option is supposed to disable
caps lock, but that not working either...
Everything works fine on the console, though, so it has to be some kind
of X config problem.
