Short version: What is the official, known-to-work, way of invoking xmodmap at X startup?
Longer version:
What I've tried:
I have a .Xmodmap file which I'd like to invoke when X starts, which seems a standard thing to do. However, I can't get any variant of standard procedure to work.
I have file ~/.xinitrc:
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap
Now I would expect that .Xmodmap would take effect at X start, either because some script somewhere looks for ~/.Xmodmap and applies it, or invokes ~/.xinitrc.
However, evidently neither of those things happens. I did check ~/.xsession-errors, but there's nothing in there pertaining to .xinitrc or .Xmodmap.
This is for Mint 15 Cinnamon x64.
Ideas? Thanks,
