When I run xmodmap from my ~/.xinitrc file, the modifications do not
take effect unless I execute 'xmodmap .Xmodmap' from the initial xterm
session. I have also tried xmodmap -e '...' lines in the .xinitrc file
and the same problem happens. Has anyone else experienced this
problem? Any work arounds?
Below are a test .xinitrc file and the relevant console output. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
I am using Apple's X11 0.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.2.4.
Apple has added a new way of mapping the keyboard based on OS X system
defaults. Unless this is disabled, I believe that it overrides some
xmodmap mapping. Could it be doing the overiding after the xmodmap in
the .xinitrc? The FAQ or archives from here should show how to disable
the new mapping.
