: Does anyone know how to use xmodmap to change the keyboard mappings?

[cut]

When I installed FreeBSD 2.1.5 from the Walnut Creek CDROM, I took
a short cut by moving the .Xmodmap file over from my Linux machine.
(I have to access All-In-1 every day from home.)  This file contains
the following bindings:

keycode  22 = BackSpace
keycode  63 = KP_F3
keycode  67 = F1 F11
keycode  68 = F2 F12
keycode  69 = F3 F13
keycode  70 = F4 F14
keycode  71 = F5 F15
keycode  72 = F6 F16
keycode  73 = F7 F17
keycode  74 = F8 F18
keycode  75 = F9 F19
keycode  76 = F10 F20
keycode  77 = KP_F1
keycode  82 = KP_F4
keycode  86 = KP_Separator KP_Subtract
keycode 107 = Delete
keycode 108 = KP_Enter
keycode 112 = KP_F2

I then had to add the following for FreeBSD:

keycode  79 = KP_7
keycode  80 = KP_8
keycode  81 = KP_9
keycode  83 = KP_4
keycode  84 = KP_5
keycode  85 = KP_6
keycode  87 = KP_1
keycode  88 = KP_2
keycode  89 = KP_3
keycode  90 = KP_0

Hope this helps.
