Title:
  $HOME/.Xmodmap is applied twice

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  It seems that $HOME/.Xmodmap is applied twice in Ubuntu 10.10. This
  might cause problems for some users - in my case, for example, I use
  Xmodmap to swap the Escape and CapsLock key - so when applied twice,
  nothing is essentially swapped. FYI, here's my .Xmodmap:

      ! Swap caps lock and escape
      remove Lock = Caps_Lock
      keysym Escape = Caps_Lock
      keysym Caps_Lock = Escape
      add Lock = Caps_Lock

  I verified this by commenting out the line in /etc/gdm/Xsession which
  applies my ".Xmodmap". After that, everything works as expected. It
  seems that some other component applies .Xmodmap, too - I guess it's
  some part of Gnome, as sometimes when logging in I get asked which
  .Xmodmap I want to load.
