Err, to tell you the truth, I also use the xkb extension to change my keyboard to the dvorak mapping, but I don't know what the xkb equivalent is for remapping specific keycodes (in my case I've remapped the windows keys so that I can make these nifty germanic symbols, like ê and ë, which you probably can't see in anycase). It's just so easy with xmodmap... :) Cheerio, -- charl p. botha | computer graphics and cad/cam http://cpbotha.net/ | http://www.cg.its.tudelft.nl/
