Caps lock is behaving like shift lock

I'm not sure how this happened. Maybe it was when I was adding a second layout to my keyboard somehow (although I only added another language). When I press caps, which I only use and have only used to capitalize alphabetical characters, now I get the behavior of shift: the spacebar doesn't work, numerical character such as 123 become !@#. This greatly affects my workflow in a negative way. When I run setxkbmap -query this is what I get back: rules: evdev model: pc105 layout: us,il variant: intl,biblical options: caps:caps_toggle And this is only after I tried running setxkbmap -option -option caps:caps_toggle. I've also tried the same with caps:caps_lock with no result. Before I did this, -query returned rules: evdev model: pc105 layout: us,il variant: intl,biblical options: caps:shiftlock,caps:caps_lock,caps:capslock,caps:none,caps:nocaps,caps:caps,caps:capslock,grp:toggle Although the options are different, the behavior is the same. I know this is an issue with the X keyboard, since this doesn't happend when I switch to a purely terminal screen.
