That worked! First I thought I'd do it system-wide and placed the entry in /etc/X11/Xmodmap but apparently kdm doesn't look in there by default. At that point, I realized that I can't run a shortcut from the login window and just did it your way (except named the file ~/.Xmodmap since it seems to be the convention) Thanks Matt! -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
