Description Peter Hutterer 2009-08-16 17:52:37 UTC 
Quoting from Red Hat Bug 505187:
"I have a patch, which makes it so you can choose to have your CapsLock key be
either Super or Hyper with a radio button in the gnome-keyboard-properties gui.

It's very handy for people like me with laptop keyboards that are short on
modifier keys on the bottom row (just ctrl and alt)."

Looks ok to me though it'll need some cleanup to go into the repo. Sergey, any comments? If you're fine with the patch, I'll clean it up so you can commit it directly.

There is already capslock(super) section. I do not mind adding capslock(hyper)
