Does it work if you run xmodmap from a shell when fvwm is running? I've had a similar problem: Although xmodmap is called from .xinitrc, the keyboard layout is reset to the default after that. The only solution I could find was to run xmodmap with a delay so that it would run some seconds after fvwm startup. This is the line from ~/.xinitrc: ( sleep 4; xset s off; setxkbmap -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp; xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap; ) & -- It's really not an fvwm issue, but it is possible to "disable" keys everywhere or just for certain windows with bindings. For example, I've disabled ctrl-q and alt-q in some programs with Key (Gnumeric) q TSIFW M Nop Key (Sea*onkey*) q TSIFW C Nop etc. Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt
