I've had the same situation as what Douglas Allan Tutty described. The 
caps lock problem used to be there in my Etch system, but when I tested 
it today, caps lock was working fine.

I've updated Etch several times since I first installed it, so the caps 
lock problem could be a bug that was fixed, and you might only have to 
update your OS.
