I also use startx, with Icewm. I encountered problems with ~/.Xmodmap
some time ago. I solved it by trying out various /usr/bin/xmodmap
commands on the command line and when I got them working I put them in
.xinitrc. I no longer use ~/.Xmodmap.
I hadn't heard that xmodmap was deprecated. I certainly hope there will
be a satisfactory substitute if that is the case.
