After reading the man page for xmodmap, I'm surprised that your command worked. There, it calls the fact it doesn't work a known bug. Try the following to make the caps_lock the left_shift. /usr/bin/xmodmap -e 'remove Lock = Caps_Lock' /usr/bin/xmodmap -e 'keysym Caps_Lock = Shift_L' /usr/bin/xmodmap -e 'add Lock = Caps_Lock' I think using NoSymbol instead of Shift_L will do nothing if you want that. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
