    Greetings,

    Speaking of Sun Keyboard mappings AND XKeyCaps,

    For those who is convinced that you have to accept a bunch of dead keys on
    your Sun Ultra keyboards:
    Please find an .Xmodmap file attached below which enables all of the dead
    keys on Sun Type 5 keyboard. At least arrow keys and Ins Del PgUp PgDn Home
    End group. This file was generated using XKeyCaps program (As it came with
    default install of SuSE 7.3 beta2). The program allows to assign ANY meaning
    to ANY key in a VERY intuitive way. I am glad I have stumbled across it.
    I did not have to delete .kde* directories after all!

    Alexander

    I don't know, I never heard about KeyCaps.
