Did you switch to a console and then it changes? I have ran into this for a looong time now. If I switch from KDE to a console, ctrl alt F1, then switch back to KDE, the caps lock is sort of doing funny things, It varies but usually I have to hit the caps lock key twice for it to get sorted out. Then my keyboard led and what it is actually doing matches. Also, I'm still on the old xorg and it does what I described. I have KDE 3.5.10 set to leave caps lock alone but to enable numlock. I have not tried to change any other settings. Hope this info will at least let you know that your system is not the only one being weird. Dale :-) :-)
