Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

I installed Zed today (Jul 8) following the instructions for Linux: rustup update script/linux ./script/install-linux

After testing some things (This is my first time trying Zed) I noticed that CapsLock does not work. With or without Vim mode enable. Shift + Key works for Caps.

Environment

Zed: v0.144.0 (Zed Dev c617d48e16c17a041d98dbe33a967dd1c1a35d13) OS: Linux X11 pop 22.04 Memory: 27.1 GiB Architecture: x86_64

Kernel: 6.9.3-76060903-generic CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS Creator Editi GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile GPU: AMD ATI 04:00.0 Rembrandt

I can't tell if it's using the dedicated GPU or not.

I have the same issue using 0.143.4 downloaded from the releases. Basically it doesn't detect that I press caps lock but pressing the shift key works.

Not sure if it's going to help during debugging but If spam capslock while pressing any character on the keyboard sometimes it detects and toggles caps lock.

If I run zed with sudo, caps lock works as it's supposed to.

Edit: for now I could fix it by running setxkbmap in the terminal.

In my case, I can't toggle and have to continuously hold down the capslock or the shift button to be able to type upper case characters. I don't know if it's an intended behavior and can be customized or a bug.

Running setxkbmap as suggested by @taosx doesn't seem to work in my case. But running zed with sudo seems to work.

Still experiencing this bug on Zed 0.196.7. Caps Lock doesn't work at all - pressing it has no effect. Shift + key works fine for caps. Environment:

OS: Ubuntu 24.04 Kernel: 6.11.0-2 WM: i3 CPU: Intel i5-9500
