[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Benjamin Drung]

You mean "press caps lock" with "capslock turning on" and "release caps
lock" with "capslock turning off"?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: qemu-kvm
  
  I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the
  client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar
  to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints
- a "t" instead of a "-". It seems that the pressed caps lock is not
- passed to the client.
+ a "t" instead of a "-". A caps lock key up event is sent to the client
+ before I release the caps lock key.
