That's the "EVIL" Apple ADB keyboard design "feature". There is a patch
around somewhere, I think somebody posted a link here a couple weeks ago,
that kludges around this. I put it in the kernel on my iBook and tested it
a little. It seemed to work, but more importantly, it got the "Caps-lock is
the antichrist" guy off my back at LUG meetings :)
If you can't find the link to the proper home I think I still have the
patch on my harddrive.
