Hello everyone, OK, I checked out the manpage for xmodmap and figured out how to get my backspace key to work properly. I then inserted the following line into my ~/.bashrc file: xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace" This does work. My question is, is this the best place to put such a command? Is there a better way to solve the problem? BTW, I discovered that my backspace key had been remapped to delete, giving me two delete buttons.
