You probably have different XF86Config files. To get alt as meta, you
can put it in your "Keyboard" section. Mine is the following:
Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
AutoRepeat 500 4 # was 500 30
LeftAlt Meta
RightAlt Meta
ScrollLock Compose
RightCtl Control
XkbKeycodes "xfree86"
# XkbKeymap "xfree86(us)"
XkbTypes "default"
XkbCompat "default"
XkbSymbols "us(pc101)"
XkbGeometry "pc"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "pc101"
XkbLayout "us"
# XkbOptions "ctrl:swapcaps"
EndSection
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Mark.
