I have a Thinkpad, and its got some special "page forward/page back" buttons. I can use .Xmodmap to remap those keycodes to something useful.
However, Gnome 2.6 overrides my .Xmodmap and tells me to go use the Gnome tools to reconfigure my keyboard instead. No keyboard map exists for my keyboard, so I can't map those keys.
Hmm, is this new in gnome 2.6? I have found no word about it in the release notes and have been searching almost two days figuring out why my Xmodmap is ignored. Is there any way to tell Gnome to not override /etc/X11/Xmodmap? I use this as a central point to configure all machines's keyboards in our cluster.
