I found out that Win key (Mod4) is not seen as modifier because it is

I think you are on the wrong track. I have basically the same results
on my system (laptop, so no right-side win-key):
~ xmodmap | grep mod4
mod4Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80)

And win-tab works fine for me with KDE.

That said, I have no good idea why you are having a problem. Are you
getting the KeyRelease events?
Yes, KeyRelease events are ok. What leads me to this assumption is
that, when I remove Alt (Mod1) from modifier list, the Alt+TAB
switching behave same as Win+TAB (wrongly). And - when I removeadd
mod4 using command:
xmodmap -e clear mod4 -e add mod4 = Super_L
switching with Win+TAB works correctly. After this command the keycode
0x73 is included in mapping:
$ xmodmap | grep mod4
mod4Super_L (0x73), Super_L (0x7f)
But this is not system solution. I would rather solve it system
wide, perhaps with correct setting of xkb (in xorg.conf
probably). After more digging in /usr/share/X11/xkb I found file
symbols/altwin where is defined:
xkb_symbols super_win {
key LWIN {[ Super_L ] };
key RWIN {[ Super_R ] };
modifier_map Mod4 { Super_L, Super_R };
};
This looks good but I have trouble to activate it. I mostly end up
with dead keyboard. I'm trying something like this:
setxkbmap -layout us -symbols pc+us+altwin -variant super_win
Does anybody know how to activate this super_win setting?
