I have also tried things like: add Mod3 =3D Mode_switch keycode 0x60 =3D KP_End KP_1 1 1 in my xmodmap file with the hope that pressing the Mode_switch key would=20 give me keys 3 and 4, i.e "1" from the xmodmap definitions. (This works fine for e.g. "keycode 0x0B =3D a A adiaeresis Adiaeresis" but not for the keypad). xev (similar to the Num_Lock problem) says: XLookupString gives 0 characters. Besides (even more annoying) it looks as if every modifier that I try to define as Mod3 becomes automatically sticky, that's why I gave up the idea of redefining Mod3. Rumor has it that we'll switch to Solaris 5.10 in a few months. Maybe that'll help. Thanks for your quick and detailed support.
