Ok, sticking to fixing my Alt keys for now. First I was wrong, Alt Gr is
working as it should, it allows me to type that | character that is the
third character on its key, and various other characters that are not
labelled on the keys. It does not function as an Alt modifier however

of course the Xmodmap unnecessarily disabled the left alt on the
external keyboard as well, although Alt Gr seemed to function as an alt
key.
When I upgraded from debian stable to testing it asked me various
questions about my keyboard configuration and the end result was the Alt
Gr on the external key
r on the external keyboard stopped functioning as well, and now I have
no alt keys!
I went into the Gnome keyboard prefs and set the keyboard to 'Generic
102 key (Intl) PC', I could not find IBM Model M in the list of
keyboards so I chose this generic one after counting the number of

I put these lines to my .Xclients:
##
xmodmap -e "clear mod1"
xmodmap -e "keycode 64 = Meta_L" -e "add mod1 = Meta_L&
Does anyone know how to make the Alt keys generate Meta?
That is I want Alt-F to generate Meta-F (under Emacs, bash, etc).
I've tried setting in my XF86Config:
LeftAlt Meta
RightAltMeta
But that didn't work.
I used to work with "XkbDisable" uncommented (i

I feel your pain -- th
his own, but I hate those keys, even in
Windows. Can't count the times in a game I was trying to hit the Alt
key and hit the Win key instead only to be popped back to desktop. As
I said, I pryed those suckers completely off!

I had occasion today to be playing on a Sun Sparcstation which ran XDM with
the chooser. Out of curiosity, I entered my machine's address, and whoa!
it worked! So I was playing around on my own system from the Sun for a
little while, complete with the Sun's Unix keyboard, and discovered that

Did you happen to upgrade your X windows packages? With the new and improved XKB
extensions, the keyboard setup for "Windows" keyboards with those new funny
windows
keys, the ALT keys are now ALT and the phunkey windows keys are now META keys.

Look in the manual of keytables(5). I assume that (untested!)
something like "keycode 100 = Alt" should do the job.
Look into /etc/init.d/boot for the loadkeys comm
How can I get the Linux console to treat the right Alt key in the same
way as the left?
