Moving selections could also fail (uses Alt too). Check the startup tips. > What should I do, check (or whatever verb you like)? Probably your window manager is playing tricks. Some wm like to use Alt+Click for things (and Alt+Move and so on), so the apps never see that operation. You will have to change your wm to use some spare keys. Super and Hyper are rarely used by apps, and you can do remapping with xkeycaps.. Other way is loading via xmodmap the following (~/.xmodmap.changes ie, "!" means comment): ! Alt works as Alt and as Meta keycode 64 = Alt_L Meta_L ! Make the rare keys work as Hyper clear mod4 keycode 115 = Hyper_L keycode 116 = Hyper_R add mod4 = Hyper_L Hyper_R You can use Super_L and Super_R instead of Hyper_R and Hyper_L. 117 is the menu key, if you want to change that one too (for example to Multi_key, aka compose key). In init scripts you can run: xmodmap ~/.xmodmap.changes xset -r 115 xset -r 116 so the changes are applied and the keys do not repeat.
