Hi list, This is a question for my zaurus, but it's really yh more of an X issue so I'm not posting to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Under console I've successfully used wsconsctl keyboard.map+= to make the Ok and Cancel buttons on the back of my zaurus be Fn and Ctrl, respectively. This makes typing much much happier, since I don't need to make awkward bends in my fingers to get at certain characters. I'd like to be able to do this under X as well, and have long-ago discovered xmodmap and know how to use it.. but I can't map these keys without also mapping the left and right keypad keys. I was content to let this sit as a problem of my own ignorance, but today was reinspired with new clarification about what keycodes are.
From running xev(1) I discovered that both left &
cancel send keycode100 and right & ok send keycode102. As I understand it, the keycode is the lowest level that xmodmap can touch, so there should not be any way to use xmodmap to remap the one pair without messing with the other, right? Clearly, it's not the hardware that picks "100" and "102" to be those keys, but if it's not the xmodmap then /where is it/? I'll be so grateful for any pointers in the right direction, -Nick
