>Release:        FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386
>Environment:

	syscons, XFree86 3.2, '@' on RALT+SHIFT+2 in xmodmap.

>Description:

	Sometimes, entering '@' from the keyboard in X causes the keyboard to
	get stuck in capsmode (ShiftLock?). Pressing CapsLock will then toggle
	the LED, but does not change the capslock status. 

>How-To-Repeat:

	Define "keycode 11 = 2 quotedbl 2 at" with xmodmap.
	In normal use, press RALT+RSHIFT+2 to type '@'.
	Random, probably related to debounce timings.

>Fix:
	
	This has only happened since the recent syscons changes, which were to
	prevent CTRL-ALT and similar combinations from getting stuck down.

	Until a fix is available, switch to a non-X vty and back again.
