I use a pc104 keyboard, the bottom row looks like the following: <ctrl-L> <window-L> <alt-L> <space> <alt-R> <window-R> <menu-R> <ctrl-R>
Using xmodmap I swapped the <ctrl-L> key with the <caps lock>. In emacs (under X), <window-L> acts like a <meta> key, <window-R> doesn't do anything (using xev it shows up as "multi-key") <alt-L> and <alt-R> do nothing (they act as <alt> modifier keys, but that does nothing in emacs). <menu-R> behaves as <meta-X>. How do I change these keys? I tried using keysym in xmodmap, but my first attempt did not work with emacs. A search of the emacs info pages, web, and Debian HOWTOs wasn't a lot of help. I currently would like to have the <alt-L> and <alt-R> keys act as <meta> keys in emacs (in the long run it might be better to have the window keys become <meta> keys and the <alt> keys be a new modifier, however, I'm switching from NTEmacs where <alt> is <meta> and that's what my fingers want to type.)
