Didn't look at the man page. showkey(1) [and its cousins loadkeys(1) and dumpkeys(1)] are for use from a Linux VT, not from X. See also keymaps(5). Use xev(1) to get the key names that X uses. They aren't the same as the ones the VTs use. Also for X, see xmodmap(1) and setxkbmap(1). (And I swear they made the X Window System documentation as obscure as possible. *grrr*) Hope this helps. --Dale -- Q: Why did the Klingon color his hair blond? A: Because it was a good day to dye.
