Caplock inversed in Ubuntu 23.10

[Danny Wenjue Zhang]

The Caplock button on my OMEN16 Ubuntu 23.10/Win 11 laptop is inversed, it is lit when it is not in Caplock state and vice virsa. For more detailed information, see this bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/267999
I basically just want to provide my system data to deal with that bug.

Hi @Danny,

Thank you for your report.

As the issue seems to be an ACPI/BIOS problem and not a kernel issue, I suggest that you file a bug report on HP community and possibly update your BIOS to the latest one.

Thanks.

I see. I will try that and come back to you then.
