Upstream changed things again. You want to play with the altwin symbols file: // $XFree86: xc/programs/xkbcomp/symbols/altwin,v 1.4 2001/10/10 19:18:32 herrb Exp $ partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "meta_alt" { key <LALT> { [ Alt_L, Meta_L ] }; key <RALT> { [ Alt_R, Meta_R ] }; modifier_map Mod1 { Alt_L, Alt_R, Meta_L, Meta_R }; // modifier_map Mod4 {}; }; partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "meta_win" { key <LALT> { [ Alt_L, Alt_L ] }; key <RALT> { [ Alt_R, Alt_R ] }; key <LWIN> { [ Meta_L ] }; key <RWIN> { [ Meta_R ] }; modifier_map Mod1 { Alt_L, Alt_R }; modifier_map Mod4 { Meta_L, Meta_R }; }; partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "left_meta_win" { key <LALT> { [ Alt_L, Alt_L ] }; key <LWIN> { [ Meta_L ] }; modifier_map Mod1 { Alt_L }; modifier_map Mod4 { Meta_L }; }; partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "super_win" { key <LWIN> { [ Super_L ] }; key <RWIN> { [ Super_R ] }; modifier_map Mod4 { Super_L, Super_R }; }; partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "hyper_win" { key <LWIN> { [ Hyper_L ] }; key <RWIN> { [ Hyper_R ] }; modifier_map Mod4 { Hyper_L, Hyper_R }; }; // Use Menu for the menu key partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "menu" { key <MENU> { [ Menu ] }; }; You can access these via the XkbOptions parameter, e.g.: Option "XkbOptions" "altwin:meta_alt" BTW, get rid of that XkbCompat option. You're mixing and matching the XKB configuration hierarchies. -- G. Branden Robinson | Q: How does a Unix guru have sex?
