** Description changed: Up until Raring, it was trivial to use the gnome-control-center to modify caps lock key behavior. In earlier versions you could do the following: - Launch System Settings - Click on Keyboard Layout - Click on Options - These options allow one to modify Caps Lock Key behavior (for example swap it with ESC) In newer versions of Saucy I try to do the following: - Launch System Settings - Click on Keyboard - Click on Layout Settings - Cannot find a location similar to these older options These older 'Keyboard Layout Options' made it very easy to do things like swaping Caps Lock for ESC which make vim users much happier.
