#8 cap-locks->control yields sticky control key

[Nathan Dunn]

When the cap-lock key is assigned to the control key, the control
adopts the stickiness of the original cap-lock behavior. If I hit
control once, every key has the control modifier. If I hit it again,
no key has the controlmodifier.

I know that this was working in gnucontrol up to 10.3.7.

Am now running 10.3.8.

This is only for the powerbook G3 (pismo). I haven't yet seen this on
the PowerMac G4 Dp 867.

Download http://doublecommand.sourceforge.net/files/
DoubleCommand.output.10.3.tar.gz (if you are using Mac OS X 10.3) and
run (copy and paste) the following commands in a Terminal window:

cd (to where the downloaded file is, eg. cd ~/Desktop)
gnutar xzf ./DoubleCommand.output.10.3.tar.gz
cd DoubleCommand
sudo kextunload /Library/StartupItems/DoubleCommand/
DoubleCommand.kext
sudo chown -R root:wheel ./DoubleCommand.kext
sudo chmod -R 755 ./DoubleCommand.kext
sudo chmod 644 ./DoubleCommand.kext/Contents/Info.plist
sudo chmod 644 ./DoubleCommand.kext/Contents/MacOS/
DoubleCommand
sudo chmod 644 ./DoubleCommand.kext/Contents/Resources/
English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
sudo chmod 644 ./DoubleCommand.kext/Contents/pbdevelopment.plist
sudo kextload ./DoubleCommand.kext

Now open a new Terminal window and type:

tail -f -n 50 /var/log/system.log

This window will output lines showing what keys have been pressed. Open
a TextEdit window and place it so you can see the Terminal window as
well, then press the keys you are interested in and watch the lines appear
(there will be a slight delay). When you know which lines are output for
which key press, copy those lines into an email to me, and note which key
on your keyboard produced the lines.

To return to usual, run:
sudo kextunload ./DoubleCommand.kext
sudo /Library/StartupItems/DoubleCommand/DoubleCommand start

send the output to mbaltaks@users.sourceforge.net
