[opensuse] Keyboard Remapping
Hi Folks, I'm finally mucking around with 11.2 and KDE and am trying to replicate the important KDE 3.5 functions. So far, the only thing I'm stuck on is keyboard remapping, in particular swapping the left-control key with caps-lock. This was easy in 11.1 and earlier yast2's, just check a box. Alas, I can't find the graphical ju-ju with KDE 4.2. I hope I don't have to go back to a xmodmap spell of some sort. The swap used to be done in Xorg.conf, but that's going away, right? What's the approved modern way to remap keyboard keys? Thanks, Lew -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
