Happy Hacking + Emacs keybindings have changed in the last week

2002-10-10 Thread Kirk Strauser

I use a Happy Hacking Lite keyboard with my Debian/sid system.  In the last
week, Emacs 21 quit responding to the left and right diamond keys as meta
and started treating them as super.  From my ~/.Xmodmap, which hasn't
changed in over two years:

keycode 131 = Meta_L
keycode 129 = Meta_R

I have not touched a config file on my system recently, although I've
dist-upgrade'd several times recently.  Anyone know of any changes that
would have caused this to happen, and/or how to get my old Emacs bindings
back?

sounds like the X 4.2 ate my meta key problem.
See the X changelog.  Search for 'meta'.

Thanks for the pointer.  For others with the same problem, I changed
XF86Config-4 as follows, restarted my X session, and had my old settings
back:

-   Option  XkbLayout us
+   Option  XkbOptions altwin:meta_win
