Hi folks,
having just recently figured out xmodmap and installed a .Xmodmap

Reading the loadkeys man page, I saw that the file syntax was nearly
the same for loadkeys as for xmodmap, so I just tried running loadkeys

They play fine together. In fact there is really no need disable it.
If you have the USB 2.0, the modprobe succeeds. If not, the modprobe
