I can understand you. The next keyboard I'll buy won't have those nasty keys. What about declaring your Alt-Keys in XF86Config as Meta? This snippet is taken from the Keyboard section of my /etc/X11/XF86Config <snippet> LeftAlt Meta RightAlt Meta </snippet> I'm sure there is some way to get this behavior with elisp, too, but why bother? hope this helps, Christoph
