It doesn't stick. But, rather than mess around with config files, I've got another work around. Put the command: xmodmap -e "clear lock" -e "add lock = Caps_Lock" into the sessions thingy (System-> Preferences -> Sessions -> Add, the name is whatever, the command is the one above etc.).
Also after switching through the GUI, but before running the xmodmap command, ctrl-alt-backspace has to use the 'real' ctrl key. ctrl-alt- arrow (to switch desktops) has to use the 'new' (formally caps) ctrl key. After running the xmodmap command, the 'new' ctrl key works for everything. -- Caps lock LED changes state even when caps lock is mapped to ctrl https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173350 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
