I rebooted this morning, and it didn't work, notwithstanding the output of grep, which does suggest that it should have. I just ran the following: tyler:~-> cat /etc/console-tools/remap # This sed script is run across the dumpkeys output to remap keys on the console # This turns caps lock into control s/keycode 58 = Shift_Lock/keycode 58 = Alt/; tyler:~-> dumpkeys | grep " 58" keycode 58 = Shift_Lock tyler:~-> So whatever happens in the files you had me grep, it's not modifying the keymap...
