I'm one of those who like to swap the positions of the caps lock and left control keys in X. I know the xmodmap method (from the man page) and the
remove Lock = Caps_Lock remove Control = Control_L keysym Control_L = Control_L keysym Caps_Lock = Caps_Lock add Lock = Caps_Lock add Control = Control_L
or these for the ksym lines above. keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
one of them should restor the original mapping. You could always use the keycode commands instead. Control_L = 29 Caps_Lock = 58
Use this for both swaps instead of the keysym method.
seem to be reversible. Since I share my home PC, how can I do a ctrl/caps swap that can be reversed without restarting X? Thanks.
I change the label on the keys to match the swap :)
I also have a modified keymap for the console that swaps them.
I haven figured out how to do it in grub or lilo yet, but I know it's possible in grub.
