Anybody's ever had anyluck with that option in XF86Config?
I haven't 
It's not working on my desktop ( bog standard uk keybord) nor my laptop.
any emacs/xemacs user know a trick to get CapsLock mapped to Ctrl?
lemme know.
My left wee finger is sore.... |

It works for me. Here's the relevant chunk of my XF86Config
| Code: |
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "Keyboard"
# lots of stuff omitted ....
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
|
Is that what you have? If you can't get it to working, check out xmodmap, which lets you do the same thing. There's a web page somewhere with very explicit instructions.
