Caps lock during login 32 weeks 4 days ago

Why you copy the caps lock indication behavior from Windows XP?

The caps lock indicator is only been visible at start of login, during entering password it's gone.

That's very irritating, because if you start entering password with head down, you miss any caps lock situation.

By then hopen an adaption soon. :o) JensE

I went through Ubuntu's system settings to change caps lock -> control.

I used to be able to press + + in order to navigate backwards through tabs in web browsers. However, I recently switched to a goldtouch keyboard and this key combination does not seem to work. (though the caps lock still functions as control, the combination of the three keys does not seem to register).

I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my SONY VAIO VPCEH (with Windows 7 Home Basic previously installed). Sometimes when I boot in Ubuntu, following things happen:

Ubuntu loading screen seems to freeze. Esc key doesn't show installation progress. Hard-drive led doesn't glow. caps lock and scroll lock keys keep blinking.

I've to manually restart my laptop.

I installed the weather indicator default available from Ubuntu Precise’s repository, it’s simple and exellent.
