I have a .xinitrc file that works: it runs when I start X11.app, the X clients
I start in it appear on the screen, etc. It's all fine -- except for one
thing: xmodmap. One of the programs I run in .xinitrc is xmodmap, and it
doesn't have any effect. I have to run it by hand afterward, whereupon it
works.
I have verified that xmodmap actually runs from .xinitrc and appears to do the
right thing. I put "ktrace xmodmap ..." in .xinitrc, and examined the
resulting ktrace.out after X11.app started up. It shows xmodmap running,
connecting to the X server, reading my xmodmap input file, communicating with
the X server, and exiting normally. But... my keyboard mappings are simply
not in effect after .xinitrc is finished running. It's as if something is
resetting the keymap to the defaults after .xinitrc runs.
Does this problem sound familiar to anyone? Any ideas at all?
Thanks,
