Also, I'm an emacs user, and to save my pinky a lot of grief I use the Command key (=EF=A3=BF) as the Ctrl key within emacs. This works fine when using my local (powerbook) installation. However, for work, I need to connect to linux servers using VNC. The emacs installation I have running at work (being on linux) doesn't see/ recognise the command-key. I'd like to know how the keyboard's Command Key can be mapped to Ctrl on linux. Either using the linux OS or even just variables/options within emacs-on-linux.
