Ah yes, xmodmap! I'd completely forgotten about that utility. Perhaps I hoped I'd never have to learn how to really use it.

Using your hints, I was able to get the Mod4 mappings to work in the current X session without rebooting or even restarting.

xmodmap -e "clear mod4"
xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Super_L"

And BAM, they're back! I don't use that "Menu" key, but perhaps someday I will. Thanks, Wolfgang!

I migh t be able to help you with 3 out of the 5 keyboard mappings on your wishlist. Hopefully you're using Metacity. I don't think there is a binding for iconifying a window and I don't know how to incorporate a mouse click, but the other three you mention:

<mod4>f  maximize
<mod4>h  horizontal-maximize
<mod4>m  vertical-maximize  

can be mapped exactly as you specify using gconf-editor and navigating to
"apps-> metacity->window_keybindings" and creating mappings. You can also do it from the command line:

gconftool-2 -t string -s \
  /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize \
  "<Mod4>f"
gconftool-2 -t string -s \
  /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize_horizontally \
  "<Mod4>h"
gconftool-2 -t string -s \
  /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/maximize_vertically \
  "<Mod4>m"

Looks like metacity will continue to manage my windows, at least until compiz works with my hardware. :)
