Re: [Trisquel-users] trouble getting rid of capslock

[kerdadit]

Just to clarify because my post is a little unclear: the capslock comes back  
mid-session, without me logging out or restarting the computer. I'd like to  
know the trick for setting this in the most permanent and reliable way if  
there is one.

I do all my key remapping with xmodmap, but depending on your desktop
environment there may be an easier way. Are you using MATE (Trisquel 8's
default) or are you using a different DE?

Thanks, I'll look at xmodmap. I'm using the default MATE.

In that case, the easiest thing to do will be to go to Control Center
and select "Keyboard". In the window that opens, go to the "Layout" tab
and select "Options". There, go to "Caps Lock key behavior" and either
disable Caps Lock or map it to something useful like ESC or Ctrl.
