For the textmode console, using '/usr/share/kbd/keytables/hypermap.m4' is supposed to make emacs users happy. X however, does it's own keyevent -> key translation; I vaguely recall reading (Linux journal or gazette) that takes over the textmode keymap to some extent. Does anyone know how to get X to take over the textmode keymap completely?
