    I pretty much just want a functioning vanilla Gnome desktop, remap caps lock to control, and I’m happy.

      Not trying to yuck your yum, but what benefit for caps lock remap. Do you use caps lock that often?

        I think they are saying the other way around, their caps lock activates Ctrl. I have mine set up as a left hand backspace. KDE has a number of built in options for this where you just need to tick a box to activate it. I miss it a lot on my work PC (windows)

        Many people do. I’ve remapped caps lock as escape because I am a shitty vim user who trys to solve all problems by smashing that motherfucker into itself. I noticed my left pinky was getting unhappy with me, so I tried using caps lock for esc instead and haven’t gone back.

        A key dedicated to SCREAMING just isn’t that useful IMO.
