Yes and no.

Yes: when root is logged in and using X11 it has to be set for root.  
Too.

No: when root is guest on its host's desktop it "feels" the same as  
its hosts.


	xmodmap ${HOME}/.xmodmaprc

belongs into ~/.xinitrc. If no such file exists in an user's home  
directory, then a file like

	/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

can be used instead. For details consult your local manual – there is  
no general default.

Email is a wonderful thing for people whose role in life is to be on  
top of things. But not for me; my role is to be on the bottom of  
things. What I do takes long hours of studying and uninterruptible  
concentration.
