I'm not sure why this was marked Incomplete, and while I appreciate the
pointer to the bios update, I don't think it's relevant. This is really
about giving back to the user software remapping of keys and modifiers
in a user friendly way. xmodmap can do it all but it's far from user
friendly. That the Ubuntu desktop *used* to provide this (likely
through Gnome) means that this issue *is* a regression in usability.
I think it's entirely valid to reassign this issue away from xorg to a
more appropriate package (whatever that might be), but not to close it
as incomplete because of a bios issue. This isn't hardware specific,
and it does affect multiple people.
Thanks!
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
