Hi,
Just installed 10.10 on a HP Compaq nc6400 laptop (including updates).
Keyboard is Belgian, and I selected it as such during install.
I noticed that after pressing 'Shift Lock' (Caps Lock on US kb) the number keys on the top row do not change their behaviour as I would expect.
Expected behaviour after pressing Shift Lock = behave as if Shift key is pressed (is behaviour on all previous OS's I've used (Dos, Windows, VMS, numerous Unix variants)
Actual behaviour: the bottom characters on the keys are shown, with the accented characters (é,è,à) capitalized.
Any ideas on what settings I need to change to get the behaviour I expect?
Thanks
