           Summary: Caps lock being set without user interaction, possibly
                    sticky-keys related
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde-51 at dotancohen.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.90)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Configuration: Sticky keys are enabled, Caps Lock key is used to change
keyboard layout (English / Hebrew). Therefore, there is no effective Caps Lock
key to press accidentally!

In KDE 4.3 beta (was not present in KDE 4.2) often I find that in English
typing all characters produced are upper case, and pressing the shift key makes
them lower case. I must disable and then reenable sticky keys to restore proper
keyboard function. Note that Hebrew typing is fine, only English typing is
affected. When the problem occurs the Caps Lock LED is not lit, and the
Keyboard Status Applet shows that no accelerator keys are pressed.
