What you have described should have worked, so I'm guessing that there is some problem with how you are setting the keymap. I'd suggest that you try the following: kbdcontrol -d > keymap.orig cp keymap.orig keymap.my Now edit keymap.my and make any changes. (I actually map ctrl-alt-end to halt, so I have a choice or rebooting or halting.) Now load the keymap and check the change way OK: kbdcontrol -l keymap.my kbdcontrol -d > keymap.new diff keymap.my keymap.new Now try pressing ctl-alt-end, or whatever combination you choose. David.
