Shift/Caps Lock on Dual Language Setup
Hey,
I've installed Arch + Xfce. I use two keyboard layouts with super+space to switch between them.
When I'm on the English layout, the shift/caps lock work as expected.
When I switch to the other language, I'd expect the shift/caps lock to type capital English characters, but instead random odd characters are typed (the layout is Hebrew, and the weird chars are Niqqud / Cantillation).
How can I make the shift/caps lock keys work as expected?
Thanks.

I was using the Lyx variant. Switching to Biblical didn't help, but after I tried to unset the variant it worked.
Thanks!

Thought as much ;-)
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
