The following patch adds a partial modifier_keys block to /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/altwin which provides a german keyboard-layout with the old meta_win behavour. I don't know if this is the best way to solve the problem but it works for me. --Begin-- --- /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/altwin 2002-10-15 01:44:22.000000000 +0200 +++ /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/altwin.new 2002-10-15 01:45:55.000000000 +0200 @@ -19,6 +19,17 @@ }; partial modifier_keys +xkb_symbols "meta_win_de" { + key <LALT> { [ Alt_L, Alt_L ] }; + key <RALT> { [ Mode_switch, Multi_key, Alt_R, Alt_R ] }; + key <LWIN> { [ Meta_L ] }; + key <RWIN> { [ Meta_R ] }; + modifier_map Mod1 { Alt_L }; + modifier_map Mod5 { 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 ] }; --End-- -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux eris 2.4.18 #1 Son Sep 29 23:38:51 CEST 2002 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ignored: LC_ALL set) Versions of packages xlibs depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfreetype6 2.1.2-7 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii xfree86-common 4.2.1-2 X Window System (XFree86) infrastr -- no debconf information -- /--------------------------------------------------------------------\ Debian GNU/Linux - _The_ free oprating system David Spreen - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - C8B6823A (keyring.debian.org) \--------------------------------------------------------------------/ --------------------------------------- Received: (at 164767-done) by bugs.debian.org; 18 Sep 2004 08:39:37 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Sep 18 01:39:37 2004 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from postfix4-2.free.fr [213.228.0.176] by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1C8akr-0004hc-00; Sat, 18 Sep 2004 01:39:37 -0700 Received: from localhost.localdomain (lns-vlq-26-82-254-147-148.adsl.proxad.net [82.254.147.148]) by postfix4-2.free.fr (Postfix) with ESMTP id C08D21EA5B1 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sat, 18 Sep 2004 10:39:36 +0200 (CEST) Received: by localhost.localdomain (Postfix, from userid 1000) id BC2F923D9C; Sat, 18 Sep 2004 10:43:05 +0200 (CEST) Date: Sat, 18 Sep 2004 10:43:05 +0200 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Bug#164767: xlibs: altgr doesn't work on german keyboards with "altwin:meta_win" Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6+20040818i From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Denis Barbier) Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-6.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_00,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 X-Spam-Level: Hi, the altwin:left_meta_win option was added for such cases, so I am closing this bug.
