Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
This bug re-appeared after upgrading to Jaunty.
I set "Ctrl-key-position" in gnome-keyboard-properties to "Make Caps-
Lock an additional Ctrl". This works for a while, but then arbitrarily
returns to the default behavior at some point during normal desktop use
(e.g. I hit "Caps-T" for a new tab in Firefox, and it inserts a capitol
T and caps lock is on.)
I saw this behavior previously in Intrepid - it was in the known issues
list for either the Intrepid beta or RC - and had worked around it by
manually forcing the preference in xorg.conf with
in Section "InputDevice"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
I'm trying the old Intrepid work around now (set keyboard to "Evdev
Managed Device"), but when that doesn't work I'll go back to the
XkbOptions thing.
