Now xmodmap isn't running from ~/.xinitrc like it used to. My .xinitrc is the same as it's been for years, so it includes the lines if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then xmodmap $usermodmap fi After some experimenting, I find that if I run $ xmodmap .Xmodmap $ xmodmap .Xmodmap ...twice, as shown, in an xterm after X gets going - then my .Xmodmap takes effect. If I comment out that section of ~/.xinitrc, then I only have to run $ xmodmap .Xmodmap once in an xterm. I would like not to have to run xmodmap manually at all, but have .xinitrc take care of it, just as it used to be before the upgrade. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance. -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org ** [ Busy Expunging <|> ]
