The system is JP Windows, US keyboard, XKB enabled, no XF86Config file, and "setxkbmap -print" prints: xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete" }; xkb_symbols { include "pc/pc(pc101)+pc/us" }; xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc101)" }; }; I can't reproduce your problems on this system. Ideally speaking, changes of Windows scancode mapper are invisible from Cygwin/X. Because scancodes are the only information Cygwin/X uses, your Caps Lock key and Control key should be completely equivalent for Cygwin/X. I hope you track down your problem.
