It happened 2 days ago when I upgraded/installed packages on unstable:

For GNOME, this indeed did the trick to enable the APPLE key to also
perform as ALT key:

Tab: Layout Options: add "Alt and Mete on the Alt keys (default)."

Strange, those examples looked similar to what I use on my i386 laptop to
swap the alt and windows keys, to make them behave like my iBook. Maybe you

GNOME uses Xkb, you can set up the same options in the X server
configuration or at runtime with setxkbmap.

Hi all,
Hmm, can't find the keyboard settings for gnome and the two examples
previously send for xmodmap resulted in apple key being mapped to the
TAB key. Are there any other alternatives?
Thanks,

Hi all,
I have this in my xmodmap file:
!! map both [APPLE] keys to [left ALT]
!TODO does not work
keycode 115 = Alt_L
but it doesn't work and my left had is getting tired of ALT-TAB without

Does anybody know how to fix this (I use Gnome bby the way).

My .Xmodmap looks like this:

keycode 0x49 = adiaeresis Adiaeresis
keycode 0x4A = odiaeresis Odiaeresis
That is I map some typically Swedish characters on some function keys.

So far the best solution I have found is to load my Xmodmap file myself:

The gnome keyboard properties is really scary. I was not expecting this

This is case-sensitive, and must be 'BackSpace'.
You can edit /etc/X11/Xmodmap and simply uncomment the appropriate line.

Besides changing the keysym, you must update the modifier map:
keycode 108 = Control_L
add Control = Control_L
See "man xmodmap" for details.
e as if it were before the Xmodmap change.
Does anyone know how to get this key to work as desired in X programs other
than xev?
the xev output for pressing the enter key (which I wish to see behave like
control_l) then pressing the normal control key is

And some PowerMac clones (those made by Power Computing) can also use PS/2

No. As it stands USB is converted to either ADB keycodes (ie PMac)
or the kernel won't compile :) (This will hopefully be fixed so it does
