Since no one mentioned how to actually do this, I'll show you my .xmodmap file that I load via .xinitrc. I have a Lombard, which (I think?) has the same keyboard as you, or something very close to it, so this should work well for you. ---- .xmodmap ---- keycode 64 = Alt_L keycode 115 = Meta_L keycode 109 = Hyper_L keycode 113 = Super_L clear control add control = Control_L clear mod1 clear mod2 add mod1 = Meta_L add mod2 = Hyper_L add mod3 = Alt_L add mod4 = Super_L -------------------- You'll note that I've bound things to Hyper and Super as well. While I was screwing around swapping Alt and Meta after the latest X upgrade, I noticed that if you hold down the "fn" key and press the various modifiers it produces the _R version of the keysym. This is useful for even more modifier keys for xemacs, IMHO =) ---- .xinitrc ---- xsetroot -solid black xset b 0 xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults xmodmap ~/.xmodmap unclutter & ssh-agent sawfish ------------------ my .xinitrc file is just there to show how to load the xmodmap rc file. good luck, -- Josh Huber | [EMAIL PROTECTED] |
