Hello again,

Only now, Having posted my message to you, I realise that you run Arch in the 
VmWare Fusion which I think is a linux system.  Maybe you won't need to do more 
apart from setting capslock key on the mac side to "no action", since I 
understand that Mac doesn't give up capslock key easily.  I don't know anything 
about arch.  Sorry if I have confused you.
