I have recently been mapping the multimedia keys on my keyboard using xmodmap. The keys are working well but I have run into 2 problems in the process which I would like fixed. The first one is probably a simple fix, it is that I want to be able to run the command:
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
every time I log into kde, I currently have the command presideing in my .bashrc file, this however means I have to open konsole before the keys begin to work, it also means that when I log into a terminal I get an error. Any help as to where I can put the command to auto run on KDE login would be much help.
The other problem is that when using the Keyboard Shortcuts configuration utility in the K Control Center, I mapped Ctrl+F to open the KDE Find utility globally, I quickly however found out that I could no longer open a file in Emacs because Ctrl+X followed Ctrl+F would bring up the find utility because of the setting, I then changed it to be F17, the key I have the button with the Little magnifying glass on my multimedia section of my keyboard mapped too. I saved and restarted the computer to make sure the setting took effect, however Ctrl+F still opened the util, I then open Control Center to check if I had saved it and I had. I then ran the command:
cat ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals |grep Find
which outputted:
Find=F17
So I have no idea why the problem presists. Any help would be much thankfull.
Thanks in Advance,
Spore
