I was fooling around with the keyboard, and I hit Pause/Break, then I hit PrintScreen/SysRq. The screen then went to all caps, and although it recognizes the difference between W and w (for example), it doesn't display it at all. And there's no way to restore it to lower-case except logging out and letting the login program restart Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot box 2. Hit Pause/Break 3. Hit PrintScreen/SysRq 4. Hit enter 5. All in caps! Actual Results: Goes to all caps Expected Results: Should have said "login incorrect" and just acted normally Portage 2.0.51-r15 (default-linux/x86/2004.0, gcc-3.3.5, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.7-hardened-r17 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.7-hardened-r17 i686 Pentium II (Deschutes) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4 [2.3.4 (#1, Oct 26 2004, 20:01:25)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9, 1.4_p6, 1.9.4, 1.8.5-r3 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.21-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i386-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts crypt cups encode f77 font-server foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gpm gtk2 imlib ipv6 jpeg libg++ libwww mad mikmod motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python quicktime readline sdl slang snmp spell ssl svga tcpd truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts xml2 xmms xv zlib" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
that's a feature, not a bug :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 30500 ***
but I didn't type in a capital username, i just hit those two keys...is that related to typing in a capital username somehow? like on old terminals those two keycodes would be sent?
