Tried to rebind CapsLock to Mod3 modifier.
Gentoo
amd64
Xorg master
After issuing
$ xmodmap -e 'clear lock'
all modifiers go weird and stop working correctly.
I tried to paste this to file and give it ot xmodmap - the same effect, as in [1]
!
! - map capslock to meta key
!
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
add Mod3 = Caps_Lock
Am I doing something grong?
Thanks!
