Public bug reported:

I'm trying to transfer my .xmodmap over to Lucid from karmic.


Error using xmodmap .Xmodmap:

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for 
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  118 (X_SetModifierMapping)
  Value in failed request:  0x17
  Serial number of failed request:  16
  Current serial number in output stream:  16


.xmodmap file:

clear control
clear mod4

keycode 66 = Control_L
keycode 37 = Super_L
keycode 133 = Caps_Lock

add control = Control_L Control_R
add mod4 = Super_L


If I remove the line for "add control" then the error does not appear, but then 
I fail to get my control key mapped to the caps lock. 

The end goal is to get
Caps Lock Key == Control
Left Control Key == Mod4

This looks close to the error in this debian bug here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=564327

Except that I cannot get the xmodmap to take place with/without a call
to setxkbmap
