           Summary: Can't remap caps-lock to control in XDarwin
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.8.2
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Server/general
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: monnier at iro.umontreal.ca


Under XDarwin, if I use xev I see that the caps-lock key does not send the usual
press+release events, so if I remap it to control, I get a "control-lock" key
which is of course not what was intended.

I tried to use uControl instead, but if I setup uControl to remap caps-lock to
control (which works OK under Quartz) my XDarwin then can't see the caps-lock
key at all anymore: xev shows no event whatsoever when I press/release the
caps-lock key.
