13639	Windows client does not respect linux host xmodmap settings -> working as designed	Will Everett		"Under Debian I have xmodmap swap the left control and caps lock. When using a Windows 7 client, this swap is ignored by the client but still recognized by the host. So while the keyboard is captured by the W7 VM if I press the physical Ctrl_L+S keys (to save a document), it will save the document AND activate the caps lock. If I press the physical Caps_Lock+S keys, it will type a capital S (but will not activate caps lock on either host or client).

I have just noticed this problem as I don't use a remapped keyboard very often. I'm having the problem with 4.3.18 with a Debian Jessie host and Win 7 client, but [[https://superuser.com/questions/813676/remapped-keys-with-xmodmap-in-linux-host-stopped-working-in-virtualbox-windows|here's a question on superuser]] where the person is using 4.3.16 with a Windows 8 client and it looks like he caught the bug more quickly."	defect	closed	other	VirtualBox 4.3.16	wontfix	xmodmap, keyboard		Windows	Linux
