According to the upstream bug report, this was fixed with commit
836864b65794dc0954a01245e418e714cead8125 which I've confirmed is
included in the natty, maverick, and lucid xservers.

Being not literate enought to parse Xorg source code, I tested the
following dirty and unreliable hack. The stupid idea is to use xmodmap
only when the Xorg window is displayed, based on my last comment. This
working (for me) should give some support to that comment:

I've discovered that the addition of the Canadian Multilingual keyboard

Here is another tip. The following command can be used to reload the settings,

I got this error as well, but I kept messing with my script that changes
the key modifiers and it seems to work for me now. The script is

For those who specifically only wish to make Caps Lock into Control, I found
help at this site:
http://mina86.com/2009/10/11/more-control-no-caps-lock/
What it says:
1) Open /etc/default/console-setup
2) Add ctrl:nocaps to XKBOPTIONS,
for example from
XKBOPTIONS=""
to
XKBOPTIONS="ctrl:nocaps"
(
I was bitten by the same bug while using a specific ~/.xmodmaprc to switch the
option and command keys
on a macintosh keyboard.
Applying the following patch works around the problem:
! Remove Mod1 and Mod4 mappings (as shown by xmodmap on fresh config)
-remove Mod1 = Alt_L
-remove Mod1 = Meta_L
Yes, thanks NiñoScript's workaround worked. Not as I anticipated, but in
the end CapsLock became Hyper_L.
I changed
= 66;
to
= 66;
and commented away the original ( = 208; or something like that).
Then I still needed to run
xmodmap -e 'keycode 66 = Hyper_L'
... did not fully understand the k
I found the same problem when I upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04.
Specifically, I was remapping another key to Control_L, with
xmodmap -e 'keycode 133 = Control_L'
xmodmap -e 'add Control = Control_L'
But the 'add Control = Control_L' line fails, with the same error
mentioned above.

Yay! I helped someone :D

I figured out how to change that stuff myself without needing xmodmap,
yay for me :)
In this file: /usr/share/X11/xkb/keycodes/evdev
I found these lines:
= 64;
= 37;
= 65;
= 105;
= 108;
// Microsoft keyboard extra keys
= 133;
= 134;
which I changed for these ones:
= 108;
= 133;
= 65;
This bug is really serious and if not fixed will make me leave Lucid at
once.
My whole workflow is resting on " Hyper_L on CapsLock " or precisely:
xmodmap -e 'remove lock = Caps_Lock'
xmodmap -e 'keycode 66 = Hyper_L'
xmodmap -e 'add mod3 = Hyper_L'
I am using emacs 99% of the time and without
I just tried the patch and it doesn't work for me.
Is there anything else I can test or look at to help get this bug fixed?
It's just destroying every control- shortcut I use because my control
keys aren't where I expect. Oddly, my other keys remapped with xmodmap
work; it's just control keys that
This greatly affects my workflow, I like making my macbookpro's command keys,
Control_L and Control_R, respectively, and the control key a Super.
I and my co-workers are so used to this, that our little fingers ache a little
when we use them for complex and/or repetitive keystroke combinations.

Agree with Nathan. This bug might make many people take Ubuntu of their
macbook (et similar) once upgraded to Lucid. Basically many characters
and key combination are unfeasible with this bug around.

Kieran, sure that is a patch to xorg-server.
So apt-get source xorg-server, apply the patch (actually it looks like

xmodmap is not something very high on my priority list given how little
time remains for lucid. If you can obtain a patch from upstream
(bugs.freedesktop.org) we can consider inclusion of it for lucid.
Attach the patch to this bug report and that'll cause it to bubble up to

Is there any chance of this bug getting fixed for Lucid? I just upgraded
a few days ago, and am feeling the loss of my usual control keys
acutely. If it's not getting fixed, is there a workaround?
