Re: Caps Lock / Bloc Num problem

Ok, this is the situation. When the caps lock ON window appears in the right
bottom corner of the screen (it's the same thing with the Num Lock), the
laptop keyboard completely die. But connecting an external USB, I checked
that everything is fine with the external keyboard.
To restore the functionality of the laptop keyboard I have to restart the
system.

What could I do? The Caps Lock is not so hard to press, even without
intention..
