I don't use GNOME, so I may be wildly off here, but can't you change the part where XF86Calculator is bound to calculator without needing to know where the actual mapping to gcalctool takes place?

I'm trying to find WHERE the mapping from XF86Calculator (that key, on my
keyboard) is mapped to gcalctool.

Serious perusal of gconf-edit settings reveals:
/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
showing XF86Calculator bind'd to calculator

and
/schemas/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/calculator
showing calculator bind'd to<schema>

nothing else. I'm aware of the xmodkey bit, but that is not being done. Where
is it done? Compiled in?

Everything *works* I just do not want *that* calculator and cannot find where
the mapping takes place. If anyone can help - many thanks

James

PS replacing gconftool binary with free42 binary works, but boy is *that* a
dreadful hack!
