I have a laptop with Win95 keyboard. It has 3 extra keys (two 'Win95' keys and one 'Properties' key) How do I set up my .Xmodmap to make Xfree86 recognize them. &nbsp;They generate keycodes 115, 116, and 117 (xev reports that). &nbsp;I tried adding<br />
keycode 115 = Win_L<br />
keycode 116 = Win_R<br />
keycode 117 = Prop_R<br />
<br />
to my .Xmodmap, but xmodmap complains about unknown keynames. &nbsp;I also tried assigning them to F13, F14 and F15 (my keyboard only has 12 funtion keys, so there should be no confilict), but thet skrewed up my keyboard and I had to reboot.<br />
<br />
What do I do?<br />
<br />
I'm running on 2.0.27 kernel and Xfree86 3.2A
