Hi Mat,
I am assuming you want to use the caps lock key to run the orca screen  
reader. If this is the case, you can remap the caps lock key to the  
escape key from within ubuntu itself.
To do this, go into your VM and using orca, look under the system  
menu. I think its under system preferences. Find the item that says  
keyboard, and hit enter. There will be an option to change the  
keyboard type, and there is also a customize button. If you hit this,  
you will then see an option to swap the caps lock and escape keys.  
Check this button, hit apply, and orca will now work using the escape  
key instead of caps lock.
Note: Vmware fusion does not pass continuous strings of caps lock to  
your virtual machine. However, you can hit it once to leave menus and  
effectively act as your escape key.
I hope this helps.

John
do the following.
