Run `xev' and press the Alt keys to find what keycode they generate: For example, I get: keycode 113 (keysym 0xffea, Alt_R) keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L) Then write a ~/.Xmodmap file (which `xmopmap' should run). Mine looks like: clear Mod1 clear Mod2 clear Mod3 keycode 64 = Alt_L keycode 113 = Alt_R keycode 115 = Meta_L keycode 116 = Meta_R keycode 117 = Menu add Mod2 = Alt_L add Mod2 = Alt_R add Mod1 = Meta_L add Mod1 = Meta_R remove Lock = Caps_Lock keysym Caps_Lock = Hyper_L add Mod3 = Hyper_L keycode 22 = BackSpace -- Peter Galbraith, research scientist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Maurice-Lamontagne Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada P.O.
