I suspect the result is the same because Xkb is disabled in both cases. "XkbModel" "none" sounds fishy... check the log. If Xkb is disabled, that might explain why the modifiers don't work. You should be able to get Xkb working by choosing the correct XkbModel and setting your language code as XkbLayout. > Option "RightAlt" "ModeShift" This probably wouldn't work anyway as both alt keys generate the same code. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper) \ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer CS student, Free Software enthusiast \ XFree86 and DRI project member
