do you have your keymap set in the xorg.conf.d ? If not, it would seem natural that they would reset to X server defaults. <div class="gmail_quote">2011/12/29 Raghavendra D Prabhu <<a href="mailto:raghu.prabhu13@gmail.com">raghu.prabhu13@gmail.com</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi, When X is running and I plug out/plug in my usb keyboard, I see that Xmodmap/xset etc settings get lost and I have it to run xmodmap/xset again for them to apply to the keyboard. Is this a bug or the behavior the way it should be ?
