ctrl:nocaps for qemu emulation

sorry for the perhaps slightly non-devel question, but if i can't
type, i can't develop.  :-)

what's the syntactic sugar i need to apply to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
to do what i usually accomplish by adding this to the "Generic
Keyboard" stanza?

	Option		"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:nocaps"

the xorg.conf files on the XO (under qemu emulation, at least --
i don't yet have my G1G1 XO) are just quirky enough that nothing
i've tried works.

(i assume i'll have the same issue with external keyboards -- having
tried typing on a borrowed XO, i suspect i'll be attaching one fairly
often.)

thanks,
paul
