The problem is that all Powerbook keyboards are ADB keyboards, which have caps
lock in firmware. So you can't just hack it with xmodmap - you'll get a
locking control key. uControl gets around this with cleverness that I
haven't looked into - probably tracking events it gets from the keyboard.
Oh, for the day when Apple starts using a different keyboard controller in
their powerbooks. :'}
