I have since found that executing in Terminal, the command π‘ππππππ -π "πππππ π»πππ" is a temporary workaround to fix this behaviour; however, I would definitely think this issue should be fixed so it works out-of-the-box for new users. It's a very problematic behaviour for one's primary backspace to be also toggling caps lock, affecting daily typing.

This is for the in-built laptop keyboard on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga Touch. The bug is that the CapsLock key, which is meant to be remapped to a Backspace key on the Colemak keyboard layout, acts as both the CapsLock AND the Backspace, when the Colemak keyboard layout is active. This means that backspacing a single time deletes a single character AND also toggles Caps Lock. The expected behaviour is that the key acts only as Backspace when the Colemak keyboard layout is active. The output of π‘ππππ -ππππ | ππππ ππΊπ± is _ππΊπ±_πππ»π΄π_π½π°πΌπ΄π(ππππΈπ½πΆ) = "πππππ", "πππ·πΆπ»", "ππ,ππ,ππ", ",πππππππ,", "" I hope a fix can be found soon :) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu14 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.11.0-38.42~20.04.1-generic 5.11.22 Uname: Linux 5.11.0-38-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.20 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/boot.log' CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue Oct 19 17:34:44 2021 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: focal DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 620 [8086:5916] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo HD Graphics 620 [17aa:224e] InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-10-09 (9 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20210819) MachineType: LENOVO 20JDA00CAU ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-5.11.0-38-generic root=/dev/mapper/vgubuntu-root ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 08/17/2021 dmi.bios.release: 1.41 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: N1NET54W (1.41 ) dmi.board.asset.tag: Not Available dmi.board.name: 20JDA00CAU dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: SDK0K17763 WIN dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 31 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.ec.firmware.release: 1.19 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrN1NET54W(1.41):bd08/17/2021:br1.41:efr1.19:svnLENOVO:pn20JDA00CAU:pvrThinkPadX1Yoga2nd:skuLENOVO_MT_20JD_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad:rvnLENOVO:rn20JDA00CAU:rvrSDK0K17763WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct31:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: ThinkPad dmi.product.name: 20JDA00CAU dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_20JD_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad dmi.product.version: ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2nd dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO version.compiz: compiz N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.105-3~20.04.2 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 21.0.3-0ubuntu0.3~20.04.3 version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx N/A version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.20.11-1ubuntu1~20.04.2 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev N/A version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:19.1.0-1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.917+git20200226-1 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.16-1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1947677/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
