I have a Dell Mini 9 running Ubuntu 10.04 (xorg-server<br>
2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7). I don't use the AltGr key *ever*, and am really<br>
missing having a right Control key.<br>
<br>
Can I remap AltGr to be a control key? So far I've failed utterly with<br>
xmodmap and xkeycaps. Failed xmodmap command:<br>
<br>
xmodmap -e "keysym Alt_R = Control_L"<br>
<br>
xkeycaps says that it thinks it's a Control but doesn't have a modifier.<br>
<br>
Can this actually be done?<br>
<br>
