With qualifier keys, such as CTRL, SHIFT, ALT, which change the behaviour of other keys (a becomes A, etc.), it's usually best to press the qualifier key first before the next key, so that you get the alternative function rather than the usual one. e.g. Try pressing SHIFT & A together, versus hold SHIFT down and press A, and see if you always get a capital A. You don't, always. It may depend on luck, and how your keyboard is scanned. And, depending on what you're trying to do, you may *need* to do exactly what you want, first go. I've just done this on my laptop, repeatedly, and this is the result: AAAAaAAAAAaaAaAAAAAAAaaAAA Just the same way as the A key can produce "a" or "A," depending on you using it with the shift key. The PrintScreen/SystemRequest key is a dual purpose key, and which function you get depends on the qualifier key used with it. So... if you don't quite get the behaviour you expect, press and hold down ALT, first. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
