Subject: trouble when ctrl/caps key swapped by X
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2009 16:27:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090817142759.GC3548@comppasch2> (raw)

Hi,

I have the ctrl/caps keys swapped by X in xorg.conf:

Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"

The fact that this is not honoured by the guest (win2k)
might be intended or acceptable.

However, when switching from the guest window to the host
and vice versa using the key combination Ctrl-Tab, the guest
additionally interprets that as a Caps Lock stroke. This is
of couse not intended.

The result: After each Ctrl-Tab switch, win2k is alternates
between Caps Lock on an off...

This does of course not happen when using a mouse click into
the guest window for switching to the guest.

I hope this list is the right place for this issue.

Thank You,
 Felix
