It would be really nice because then > *everyone* can benefit and not everyone would have to do "quick hacks". I published my hack to help others. It is one piece of a puzzle that I know I miss a lot of the big picture. This was the best I could do. Xorg has hit unstable as far as I can see. I would usually test it (currently not possible) before submitting bugs. With reasonable doubt that my solution is the correct one (see c) above) a bug report might even distract people. My hope is that somebody searching for keymaps might find my information and it will help to complete the puzzle for good. Bernhard
