Thanks for your reply. This doesn't seem to be helping though. I use
~/.xsession to start X so I put the following two lines in it:

     xmodmap -e 'clear mod4'
     xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc

where ~/.xmodmaprc contains relevant instructions for disabling the
Super key. I found that the Super key was not disabled even after
this. I also tried including these two lines in ~/.xinitrc.

Thanks,
Girish.
