Hi!
I want to allocate Alt as Alt, and the two Windows-Keys as Meta. I had this set up, using xmodmap. But after upgrading KDE it no longer works, neither with Trinity nor with KDE4. It looks like KDE3/4 does the allocation on its own now.
Does anyone have an idea how this can be done?
Cheers, V.W.

If you set it up in KDE3, you should be able to do it the same way in TDE because we're a continued KDE3. If you did it in KDE4, or if you do it in TDE and it reverts when you use KDE4, you might have to ask KDE4 support about it.
Unfortunately I don't know much about doing keybindings, so if someone else knows about it, they should be jumping in to help soon.

It works with KDE3, but not with Trinity. I've made a .Xmodmap file which reallocates the key bindings, but when I call it (xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap) in Trinity, the Up key calls KSnapshot; the other arrow keys don't do anything any longer; and so on.
Bye, Volker

Funny, I had the same problem with keymappings. Actually, "AltGr" gave {"Cursor left", "AltGr" }, "right Ctrl" was "Enter", "Insert" called "Ksnapshot" and os on.
After struggling some hours I removed .trinity and started all over. Now most things work, except the "cursor up" key does not work in xine.
I'd like to kno what's going on there, but I have no clue :-(
