Maybe xmodmap if X is running?
xmodmap by itself tells you what these keys are mapped to.
I don't know for sure this will work, but try:
xmodmap -e "keysym Alt_R = Alt_L"
If you want to reset it typ:
setxkbmap

To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to blinux-list+unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxx.A long time ago, I found and used a command that enabled me to use the right-alt key in the same way that I could use the left-alt key. I did this especially for making Emacs easier to use, but I recall that the command itself was by way of the Bash shell. Recently, I've look for the way to do this but have not found it. I've so far done no better searching Emacs information. Can anybody tell me or point me to how I'd do this? The main benefit for me would be in using Emacs, but being able to use both alt keys at the command line would also help some. Thanks for any information.
