Hello :) 

I've been searching the net all morning and can't seem to find a way to
get my laptop's "Win" key (the key on the keyboard that has the MS
Windows logo on it) to actually do something.

I'm using Fedora 13. 

I want to be able to just press the "Win" key so that it opens the
Fedora Application menu.

I can map my "Win" key with other keys using Fedora's "Keyboard
Shortcuts" menu (eg. "Win+e" to run Nautilus etc) but I can't get the
"Win" key on its own to actually do something.

I think my problem is that Fedora is treating my "Win" key as a
modifier. 

I've used "xev" to find out that my "Win" key's keycode is 133. I've
tried putting in ~/.xmodmap:

        Control_L Escape
        F14

and ran "xmodmap ~/.xmodmap" and/or put it in
"/etc/X11/xinit/Xessions" ... but I sitll can't get the desired effect.

Does anybody know how to get the "Win" key (the key on the keyboard that
has the MS Windows logo on it) to actually do something eg. open the
Fedora Application menu ?

Thanks !
