I've done exactly this, but it still doesn't help. Without the
.xmodmap file, the command key behaves as alt, but with it I get no
meta key at all. Really weird...
Here's my .xmodmap:
clear Shift
clear Lock
clear Control
clear Mod1
clear Mod2
clear Mod3
clear Mod4
clear Mod5
keycode 63 = Meta_L
keycode 66 = Alt_L
add Shift = Shift_L Shift_R
add Control = Control_L
add Mod1 = Alt_L
add Mod2 = Mode_switch
I have a TiBook 800MHz running 10.2.4 with X11 0.2.
Any hints are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ovidiu
Here's my .Xmodmap file --
Comparing it with yours, I see the keycodes are swapped -- see if
that's the problem
clear mod1
clear mod3
keycode 66 = Meta_L
keycode 63 = Alt_L
add mod1 = Meta_L
