What I've *heard* is that the Noppoo actually reports to the PC as several different keyboard controllers, each with 6KRO.
What I've *seen* is that on Ubuntu, the caps lock LED doesn't work. My suspicion is that the LED is on a different "controller" than the caps lock key itself. This seems to be an actual problem w/ Ubuntu, as when I press the caps lock key on the laptop keyboard, the LED on the external keyboard doesn't light up (true for all I've tried - Cherry, Filco, or WASD.) I did report this to Launchpad and it was marked confirmed, but for some reason I've been unable to log in to Launchpad to see whatever happened to it.
Edit: I assume that this shouldn't be an overly difficult fix for the coders as the panel applet that gives status of the various keys (caps lock, num lock, scroll lock) works correctly. I installed it on the recommendation of someone here and it corrected an issue that I'd had with my laptop, namely, no status lights on the keyboard (whiskey tango foxtrot? Stupid Dell.)
