Public bug reported: Using Xubuntu 12.04 and autologin configured during installation, ~/.Xmodmap is being executed in a wrong way.
Steps to reproduce: - Create a ~/.Xmodmap file with the following lines: remove Lock = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Escape - Configure your account to be automatically logged in on boot. Current behaviour: - Caps Lock key works both as Caps_Lock AND Escape at the same time. - If you try to run xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap you should get: xmodmap: .Xmodmap:2: bad keysym in remove modifier list 'Caps_Lock', no corresponding keycodes xmodmap: .Xmodmap:3: bad keysym target keysym 'Caps_Lock', no corresponding keycodes xmodmap: 2 errors encountered, aborting. - If you log off and login again with your user and password, .Xmodmap is applied. This is also true if autologin is disabled. Expected behaviour: Caps_Lock should work as another Escape key. ----- Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 x11-xserver-utils: Instalados: 7.6+3 Candidato: 7.6+3 Tabla de versiĆ³n: *** 7.6+3 0 500 http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: x11-xserver-utils 7.6+3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-27.43-generic 3.2.21 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-27-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu11 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Jul 29 15:42:25 2012 InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) SourcePackage: x11-xserver-utils UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: x11-xserver-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to x11-xserver-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1030589 Title: ~/.Xmodmap is being read wrong when autologin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/x11-xserver-utils/+bug/1030589/+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
