[Bug 785938] [NEW] xmodmap does not turn off caps lock anymore

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: x11-xserver-utils

Hi,

I do have a ~/.xmodmaprc which contains the line

remove Lock = Caps_Lock

to get rid of that damned caps lock key. Since upgrading to 11.04 this
does not work anymore. Neither automatically at login time, nor manually
with xmodpa ~/.xmodmaprc

(using the traditional gnome desktop)

regards
