Hi guys,
I used to use the Windows key as one key but with the recent upgrade, thathas changed.If I recall correctly, both of these keys were mapped to Mod_4. Now in theGNOME 2.8, it is mapped to a Super_L and Super_R. Can anyone help me on how I can get my old keys back? bp
I have this in ~/.Xmodmap !! WIN9x & menu keys !! clear mod4 keycode 115 = Super_L keycode 116 = Super_R keycode 117 = Multi_key add mod4 = Super_L Super_R From a command prompt: $ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap I have a no idea how gnome 2.8 handles mod4 so I am unsure what you do next to specify actions w/ mod4+key. I expect they have some gui config app where you can specify keyboard shorctuts (?) Once you get this to work you probably want to add the "xmodmap" command to some X initialization file like .xinitrc or Xsession.In case you wonder.. keycode 117 is the menu key. I use it as a "compose" key (Multi_key). Lets you type currency (and other) symbols or accented letters that your native keyboard doesn't have.
Cheers, cga
