Same environment specified in my 10 hours old message.
I do: Ctrl-Alt-F1 to go to a tty. then
t...@box:~$ echo "remove lock = Caecho "remove lock = Caps_Lock"| DISPLAY=:0.0
xmodmap -v -
! stdin:
! 1: remove lock = Caps_Lock
! Keysym Caps_Lock (0xffe5) corresponds to keycode(s) 0x42
remove lock = 0x42
!
! executing work queue
!
remove lock = 0x42
t...@box:~$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xmodmap -v
!
! executing work queue
!
xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x71), Meta_L (0x9c)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4 Super_L (0x73), Super_R (0x74), Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80)
mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
Then I do Alt-F7 and Ctrl-Alt-F1 to just pay a mere visual visit to Xorg
server. Back in tty:
t...@box:~$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xmodmap -v
!
! executing work queue
!
xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x71), Meta_L (0x9c)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4 Super_L (0x73), Super_R (0x74), Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80)
mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
So the effect of xmodmap lasts until Xorg takes the display. I have an
impression that the bug is related to his behaviour. Hope this is not
just noisy blur around the real bug.
