Your .xmodmap looks correct. I don't think you want to be loading it from ~/.bash_profile, though. You only want it to run once, when you start a new X session (i.e., login to your desktop). In the old days, that meant adding "xmodmap ~/.xmodmap" to your ~/.Xsession file. But those fancy-shmancy integrated desktop environments everybody likes so much these days (GNOME, KDE, XFCE, etc.) often have their own way of enabling users to run command lines automatically when they log in. Creating an ~/.Xsession file may break things (temporarily). It'd be best for you to determine exactly what desktop environment you're using before proceeding. -- Paul _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
