I was running fvwm 2.5.9, and updated to 2.5.14. I’ve lost my super modifier and I can’t find it
xmodmap shows it is mod4, xev shows the “windows” key is generating super, but my windows don’t seem to be getting it.
279 rroberts> xmodmap -pm
xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock
control Control_L (0x25), Control_L (0x42), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d), Meta_L (0x9c)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4 Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80)
mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
from xev

The bindings which are being ignored are here:
Key Left A 4 Pick FuncFvwmUnMaximizeHorizontal
Key Right A 4 Pick FuncFvwmMaximizeHorizontal
Key Up A 4 Pick FuncFvwmMaximizeVertical
Key Down A 4 Pick FuncFvwmUnmaximizeVertical
which I changed to this
Key Left A 4 Pick Maximize Off
Key Right A 4 Pick FuncFvwmSimpleMaximizeHorizontally On
Key Up A 4 Pick FuncFvwmSimpleMaximizeVertically On
Key Down A 4 Pick Maximize Off
when it initially didn’t work, thinking the function names had changed and by comparing with what is currently in the window operators menu.
I’m running Fedora Core 4, including some stuff from the development repositories.
