Description of problem:
I have put the LXPanel keyboard LED widget on my panel as I have no hardware 
LEDs to show the status of the Caps/Num/Scroll lock keys.
I have selected to display only the Caps item, but on reboot I get the icon for 
Scroll Lock, which does not change status with any of the keys.
Checking the config (right click settings menu) indicates that Caps-Lock is the 
only selected item.  Deselecting and reselecting the Caps-Lock item simply 
removes and readds the Scroll-Lock image to the panel, again not changing the 
status with any keypresses of any of the locking keys.

To get the desired behaviour I must select the Scroll lock setting, then
remove it and the Caps and Num lock status displays behave properly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
This is with version 0.5.4.1-2.fc12


How reproducible:
After every reboot.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Add Keyboard settings LED to your panel, selecting only Caps Lock.  Observe 
that an indicator appears in the panel - an uppercase A.
2.  Reboot (or possibly log out).
3.  Log in
  
Actual results:
Observe that the status indicator is on scroll lock. (a down pointing arrow)

Expected results:
That the indicator would be for the caps lock (an uppercase A)

Confirmed for me with the latest lxpanel-0.5.5-3.fc12.i686

It initially gave me num lock and scroll lock indicators, in that order.
I configured it to show me caps lock and num lock instead.  After logout
and login, it showed me num lock and scroll lock again, albeit in
reverse order this time.  Also, the scroll lock indicator doesn't work
at all, but I'm on an EeePC, where the scroll lock is an fn-modified
key.  The num lock is also fn-modified though, and it works.  Anyway, I
don't really care about global scroll lock state, since applications
these days generally interpret it as a toggle, but I'd really like my
caps lock indicator to come back up each time.  Unlike the other two,
it's very easy to fat-finger that key, especially on my 7" EeePC and
other netbooks where LXDE is typically used.

Ooh, I just went to set my Keyboard LED applet config to caps lock and
num lock (num lock and scroll lock came up) and found that the buttons
for caps lock and num lock were already checked, from my previous
session.  The check box for num lock worked properly, but the boxes for
caps lock and scroll lock toggled each other's buttons, until I got it
into a state where the check boxes matched the icons, and then they
controlled the right things.  There's something very screwy going on
with how Keyboard LED is processing that configuration.

It'd be nice if we could bump the priority on this, because while it's
not that severe of a bug, it's very annoying, it makes us look bad to
the many users who may be encountering Linux for the first time on a
netbook, and it should be a fairly obvious fix for anyone who knows that
code.

The best way to bump priority is to comment to the upstream bug report
and add your comments there. If Marty knows how many people are
affected/annoyed by this, he will probably invest more time.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
