Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

Ubuntu 6.10 Beta "Edgy Eft" - GDM caps lock bug.

How to reproduce:

1) Power on your PC.
2) Before Ubuntu loads, press caps lock on the keyboard to enable the caps lock.
3) When GDM appears it warns "caps lock enabled", but when you write into the "username field", it writes lowercase (it should write uppercase because there's caps lock enabled). If you press caps lock to disable the caps lock, it writes uppercase (it should write lowercase because caps lock is disabled!) and in both these situations the ENTER key doesn't work (I press ENTER on the keyboard and nothing happens) so you can't login.
