Re: [orca-list] in laptop-mode the Caps-Lock key kept pressed after using flat review



Capslock isn't a special key in speakup unless you change default key to
capslock.  Now on laptops speakup does have capslock set as a special
key but on desktops which I use it's the insert keys.

hmm from what I know, speakup uses the capslock as a special key, so you
normally need shift+caps to toggle it, so not a kernel bug

This very probably is not an orca regression and is very probably a
linux kernel problem.  My reason for writing this is the first time I
encountered this problem orca wasn't even on the system I was running.
I was running in espeakup.  In espeakup if you push the capslock key and
then start typing normally you get upper-case characters.  To get
lower-case characters you have to hold down the shift key.  To turn
capslock off, as I wrote earlier hold down the shift key nd tap capslock
once then release both keys.  Saves necessity for a reboot when it
works.

I have this problem with Orca 2.38.0 that comes with Ubuntu 18.04 and also
with 3.28.3 I dowloaded and installed from

Do you mean the issue doesn't appear with Orca 3.26 ?

Best regards,
