Actually when I got home I checked and realized I use xfree86/pc104/us with ctrl:nocaps on my Apple Blue&White G3. (I use a USB PC keyboard with it.) When I try to enable the "nodeadkeys" variant, I get an error: [0] branden@redwald:/tmp/branden % setxkbmap -variant nodeadkeys Error loading new keyboard description It appears that this combination just flat out isn't supported. -- G.
