caps_lock trouble / current iBook

[Robert Luce <luce@math.TU-Berlin.DE>]

Hi,

i need help to switch control - caps_lock in X on my iBook (current model): assuming Caps_Lock is inactive (no green LED), xev prints KeyPressed _and_ KeyReleased events when Caps_Lock is pressed only and prints no events after Caps_Lock is released. In the case that Caps_Lock is active (green LED), events are registered just the other way around : both press and release events are printed after relaesing Caps_Lock... . Thus xmodmap doesn't have a chance to use Caps_Lock as modifier for any other key.
Any Ideas welcome...
