[Bug 427612] Re: does not pass pressed caps lock to client

[Benjamin Drung]

I modified qemu-kvm to show what keys it receives (patch attached). I am
using the German NEO layout and I get one press and one release event.
Here's the output, if I first press 'caps lock' and then '#':

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x33,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x2b
kbd_put_keycode(0x2b)

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x33,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x2b
kbd_put_keycode(0xab)
