so i'll shamelessly use this as a segue to a question i've had for a while. i've actually accomplished this by running 'loadkeys -d' after changing /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/defkeymap.map. the following lines: keycode 29 = Control keycode 58 = Caps_Lock were changed to: keycode 29 = Caps_Lock keycode 58 = Control since this works so well, i decided to try to roll my own kernel with the key table in that file. so i run 'loadkeys -d -m' to generate defkeymap.c and recompile the kernel. for some reason the key bindings don't take. am i doing this correctly? has anyone else accomplished such a feat? thanks. -alan
