Public bug reported:
Hi.
I've been having trouble with my keyboard, in that I cannot toggle the Caps
Lock function.
I initially thought it was an X problem, but further investigation found that
the Caps Lock key stops responding earlier in the boot process, specifically
coinciding with the message "Setting preliminary keymap...".
I traced this message back to this package as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/init.d$ grep -H "Setting preliminary keymap" *
keyboard-setup: log_begin_msg "Setting preliminary keymap..."
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/init.d$ dpkg-query -S /etc/init.d/keyboard-setup
console-setup: /etc/init.d/keyboard-setup
The key works perfectly when I boot from the Edgy Beta live CD, but only
in X - it doesn't work in console mode. In an up-to-date installation
of Edgy (installed from the Beta Live CD then updated with update-
manager) Caps doesn't work full stop, and for some reason
CTRL+ALT+F{1,2,3,4,5,6} doesn't work so I can't test in console mode
(maybe I should report another bug for this).
If it makes a difference, my keyboard is a Cherry CyMotion Master Linux,
and it is attached to my system by PS/2.
Cheers,
Nick
