Well, I have a ThinkPad 500 that I'm going to install Linux on this week, and one of my main reasons to install X with it would be just to be able to make this key switch. I'm not sure if by your question you mean that you've already tried the standard way of doing it through xmodmap and that doesn't work, or what? If this is so, then I'm distressed. If you are just looking for how to do it on any X windows system, below is the file that give to xmodmap to make the switch, and it has always worked fine for me on the various workstations I've used. Have you already tried this? Tom Green tmgreen@mit.edu P.S. If anyone out there has installed Linux on a TP500 I'd be curious to know if you have any crucial advice to give me before I try to tackle it alone. ----cut-----------------cut------------------cut-------------------- ! !
