Option "ctrl:nocaps" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf ignored

Hi all,

I have a single-user laptop, so I'd like to configure my X keyboard layout and options globally instead of doing it for any WM/DE I might happen to use.  And most importantly, the desktop manager (GDM) should already use my layout.  So my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf contains this section:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
        Option "XkbLayout"      "de"
        Option "XkbVariant"     "dvorak"
        Option "XkbOptions"     "ctrl:nocaps"
EndSection

The result is that I have my German Dvorak layout in GDM and in whatever WM I choose there.  However, the ctrl:nocaps option seems to be ignored.  In GDM, CapsLock is still CapsLock, not an additional CTRL.  Why not?

Here's the Xorg.0.log in case that might shed some light.  (Well, it actually only shows that the options seems to be applied to all keyboard devices...)

Re: Option "ctrl:nocaps" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf ignored

Hi all,

I've just found out that this only happens when I use GDM as display manager.  When I use LightDM, the option is enabled.  Unfortunately, I need to run GDM because I use gnome, and only with GDM the options to lock the screen are there...

Any ideas how to make GDM not disable the ctrl:nocaps option again?

Hm, I think it's a bug (or at least an inconvenience to users), so I've written that bug report upstreams: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727214

I have the exact same problem (now on version 3.12), and commented on your bug report. Did you ever get this issue resolved? Furthermore, did GDM apply some of your keyboard settings but not others - were you getting a dvorak layout but not the caps-lock control key?

I don't know that this is necessarily a bug (though to me it seems stoopid).  From what I recall of gnome and GDM, the expectation is that you will use gconf (or dconf?) to set such things.

Yes, exactly.  I do get the Dvorak layout that's set in 10-evdev.conf, but not the ctrl:nocaps option that's set there as well.
