** Description changed: - Ubuntu Hardy alpha4, alpha 3 also affected. + Description revised Aug 22. - I'm a colemak typist, and caps lock in ubuntu hardy with colemak - functions as a caps lock /and/ backspace. In colemak, it's a backspace. - I went to just set caps lock behavior to 'off'.. the option wasn't - there. It's really messing with me. - - We need an 'off' option for caps lock, and for the colemak keyboard - layout, it needs to be true by default. + The colemak layout includes a mapping for key 66, which is the Wrong Way to add the backspace caps lock key behavior. + This mapping should be removed from the colemak layout and a backspace caps behavior should be added to gnome, KDE, and xfce. + While it would be nice if the colemak layout would default to this caps lock behavior, it's not crucial, as it's easy enough to just change it. + It is possible that backspace would be the first caps lock behavior to require repeat.
