Subject: Keyboard driver not refreshing settings when unplugged.
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:50:51 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <58ccc7770911112150y4b5adebfq4401df46b20d2867@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I noticed a bug which may possibly be part of the Linux kernel.  If
one were to enable a setting on the keyboard(caps lock) and then
unplug that keyboard.  Upon re-plugging it in or another, the system
will still keep caps lock enabled.  When the user then goes and
enables caps lock on their own keyboard which assumes the setting is
disabled, the system then turns caps lock off, even though the user
wanted it on.
