AAARRRGH!!!!!!

I was lookink everywhere to find out, why KDE violated my keyboard an I 
always got a "<F13>" key event on my Keypad "<8>" key and a "<Menu>" event
on my keypad "<5>". I suspected a global Xmodmap file, no chance, I 
suspected the KDE team doing awfull things, but I just found the reason 
in "/usr/bin/startkde":

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|# Dadou - 2.1.1-4mdk - To be able to use the Windows key to open the K menu
|xmodmap -e 'keycode 115=F13'
|xmodmap -e 'keycode 117=Menu'
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As I am working on a NCD-X-terminal (yes we are using Mandrake at our 
university to teach on!) with a non windows (here a NCD with 123 Keys) keyboard,
I always get my keyboard violated (so do lots of students here, 
as they all suffer the same problem ...)

I've added them in CVS in "/etc/X11/Xmodmap" from "xinitrc" package where 
they belog to, as this file is currently used as default modmap file and 
can be overwritten by "/etc/X11/Xmodmap.{$DISPLAY}" files for X-Terminals 
with other keyboards.

P.S.: Stew you asked me in an other thread where the "/etc/X11/xinit/
      Xmodmap.{$DISPLAY}" files came from. This is why :-) I added them 
      myself toget the "buggy" keycodes fixed. Can you please recheckout 
      cvs and update the xinitrc package with my changes (see ChangeLog).
