| |
Steps to reproduce:
[log into console (not xterm)] [load non-trivial keymap] [turn on CapsLock] [type something]
Symbols won't be capital despite CapsLock and despite Shift+* working as expected.
Note: patch relies on keymap being consistent wrt SMALL/CAPITAL symbols. Though extracting SMALL <=> CAPITAL mapping from unicode tables and putting it into kernel may be more correct.
Fix long-standing http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7063
