thanks for all the suggestions on this problem. in the end just using xmodmap as Derek Homeier suggested worked. since to my knowledge nothing i'm using depends on Mode_switch, i just added the following to my .xinitrc:
xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Meta_L" it works, and it's simple. and if i ever find a use for Mode_switch, i can just map it to the command key. the cool thing is now i understand xmodmap better and know that xev (which is pretty cool) exists at all. so thanks for all the help! -Tom ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Influence the future of Java(TM) technology.
