[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored
I confirm this on Lubuntu 12.10. An .Xmodmap file with remove lock = Caps_Lock has no effect, however, keycode 66 = successfully switches off Caps Lock (where the keycode is correct). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored
I can confirm this problem too on precise XUbuntu (12.04), 32bit edition. I tried to remove the lock from the caps lock, i.e. to behave it as a normal shift. With xubuntu 10.10 I had the following working solution: clear Lock add shift = Caps_Lock After the update to precise pangolin 12.04 on the same notebook this doesn't work anymore. I had to change the entries in .Xmodmap to: remove Lock = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Shift_L add Shift = Shift_L -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored
After reading the previous comments I come to the conclusion that a working solution needs a redefinition of the keycode. Each of the working solutions have one of the following lines in it: keycode 66 = Control_L keysym Caps_Lock = ISO_Level3_Shift keycode 66 = keysym Caps_Lock = Shift_L -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored in natty
I can confirm the problem persists on oneiric. I've just installed one of my laptops from scratch with the minimal 11.10 media, without any tasks. And then proceeded with installing xorg, slim and awesome. xmodmap does not return any errors, but it doesn't set my caps_lock to mod5 either. Since this installation does not have gnome on it, I can't use my previous trick with gnome-keyboard-properties layouts options... So far I figured it was some gnome thing that was the cause of the problem, but apparently it's xorg itself? Is there any way for me to emulate what gnome-keyboard-properties does? I would really like to be able to use my caps_lock as mod5, no matter how I need to go about it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored in natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored
found a solution to my problem: Instead of doing: remove Lock = Caps_Lock add mod5 = Caps_Lock I had to do: remove Lock = Caps_Lock remove mod5 = ISO_Level3_Shift keysym Caps_Lock = ISO_Level3_Shift add mod5 = ISO_Level3_Shift The resulting xmodmap -pm looks like this (0x42 is caps_lock): xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x69) mod1Alt_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x6c), Meta_L (0xcd) mod2Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4Super_L (0x85), Super_R (0x86), Super_L (0xce), Hyper_L (0xcf) mod5ISO_Level3_Shift (0x42), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c), Mode_switch (0xcb) Hopefully this will help in tracking down the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 777882] Re: xmodmap not honored in natty
Hey ede-mit, You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade and re-test if this issue is still present there. If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll close it.) If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777882 Title: xmodmap not honored in natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/777882/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
