>Environment:

	Digital AlphaStation 600 5/333 with US ASCII keyboard and TGA2 display

	Also appears on a NetBSD/i386 system if configured for wscons.

System: NetBSD bishop 1.3E NetBSD 1.3E (BISHOP) #323: Wed Apr 8 12:42:08 PDT 1998 thorpej@bishop:/tmp_mnt/dracul/u5/netbsd/src/sys/arch/alpha/compile/BISHOP alpha


>Description:
	Since switching to the new wscons console code, caps on my
	AlphaStation 600 are ... wrong.  I built a wscons kernel for
	my PPro devel system, and noticed the same problem there, as
	well.

>How-To-Repeat:
	On a US ASCII keyboard, the following key sequence:

		QWERTYUIOP ASDFGHJKL ZXCVBNM<>

	appears as:

		QWESUYUIOQ ASEGGIKKM [YCWCOM<>

	when typed using the right or left shift key.  If typed when CAPS-LOCK
	is set rather than using the right or left shift key, the key sequence
	works as expected.

>Fix:
	Dunno... I don't know if it's a bug in the pckbd driver or in
	the wskbd driver, either.
