This seems like an *amazing* attempt to keep something from 15 years ago still working, in the face of technology that wants to do things differently now -- or maybe that wants to cater to users who don't write their own xmodmap files. I've been there (although I futzed something together so that when I opened konsole, it would apply my settings through .bashrc, massaging the keymap so it almost-matched my old Sun5 keyboard). Keep in mind that logging in through a display manager, rather than running startx from the system console, runs things **differently** and probably runs .xsession rather than .xinitc and the DM might not have support for, say, login.conf -- SDDM for instance only got that quite recently, thanks to work by it-might-have-been-Gleb-maybe. There's a keyboard configuration module that's really extensive: you may very well be able to find the settings you are looking for there (certainly group switching and things like that). Systemsettings -> Input Devices -> Keyboard. [ade]
