How to fix nomachine caps log toggle

Question

Often when using nomachine the functionality of the caps lock key will suddenly toggle. Usually it will revert back to normal after a while. But now I have a situation where it had not reverted back after a few days, nor after restarting my session. Does anyone know a way to fix this?

Answer 1

A colleague of mine found a solution to this. Running the following python code on the remote Linux/Un*x system fixed the problem:

from ctypes import *
X11 = cdll.LoadLibrary("libX11.so.6")
display = X11.XOpenDisplay(None)
X11.XkbLockModifiers(display, c_uint(0x0100), c_uint(2), c_uint(2))
X11.XCloseDisplay(display)
