The following reply was made to PR misc/43169; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Rudolf Cejka <cejkar@fit.vutbr.cz> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, neologism@seznam.cz Cc: Subject: Re: misc/43169: caps-lock led doesn't work Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2002 11:17:42 +0200 It is because of two last keys 225 and 226 and it is not a bug, it is a feature ;-) Please look into sys/dev/kbd/atkbd.c:atkbd_ioctl() on case KDSETLED section. If there is loaded a keymap and this keymap contains keys above 128, it is considered as a keymap with alternative keyboard, which is indicated by previous Caps Lock LED, so previous meaning of Caps Lock LED is lost. You can think about the possibility, that an user can control this feature from an userland (like an option in kbdcontrol or the possibility to define it in keymap file). I think that this PR can be closed and maybe reworked (and it was previously consulted with the originator of this PR).
