I've seen a few references in the archives to running xemacs over VNC
connections, but nothing that mentions the problem that I am seeing.
When I run VNC (Win98 client; Linux server) and fire up xemacs on the
server, I see four keymap warnings. These warnings take up the bottom
half of the editing frame and are rather annoying.
Anyone have any idea how I can make them go away?
(Running xemacs directly from the server instead of via VNC does not
cause the same warnings to appear.)

(1) (key-mapping/warning)
The meanings of the modifier bits Mod1 through Mod5 are determined
by the keysyms used to control those bits. Mod1 does NOT always
mean Meta, although some non-ICCCM-compliant programs assume that.
(2) (key-mapping/warning)
Two distinct modifier keys (such as Meta and Hyper) cannot generate
the same modifier bit, because Emacs won't be able to tell which
modifier was actually held down when some other key is pressed. It
won't be able to tell Meta-x and Hyper-x apart, for example. Change
one of these keys to use some other modifier bit. If you intend for
these keys to have the same behavior, then change them to have the
same keysym as well as the same modifier bit.
(3) (key-mapping/warning) XEmacs: Alt_R (0xf) generates Mod1, which is
generated by Meta.
(4) (key-mapping/warning) XEmacs: Alt_L (0xe) generates Mod1, which is
generated by Meta.
