Make CapsLock an extra Ctrl key in Linux

The problem with this using Ubuntu keyboard applet settings, the capslock LED on my T60 turns on and off.  Get rid of this behavior by inserting ctrl:nocaps line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
EndSection
