Hi Abdelkader,
seems X doesn't get your keys right.
what does
$ xmodmap -pke | grep Caps
say? After the equals(=) the first thing stated should be the KeyName, it is Caps_Lock here.
$ xmodmap -e "add Lock = Caps_Lock"
then makes the CLO usable. If this works you should take a look at permanent key remapping to make the change persistent through reboot.
greets
Simon
