im trying to change the keymap of out HP UX 10.20 server.
But here im unable to locate the xmodmap and keymap_ed files.
Are there any patches using which i can install these files.
Thanx

xmodmap should be in /usr/bin/X11 directory and,
as far as I know, part of default installed HP-UX.

ya i know it shud be present there but in out current system its not present.
Can it be installed in any way or can i pick it up from HP UX 11X directly.
will the binary work or does ot require some other dependencies?

Can i change the kepmapping in any other way without using xmodmap?

Hi Kartick,

There are no patches for xmodmap and keymap_ed at Hp-UX 10.20. Try this to locate them:

#whence xmodmap

#whence keymap_ed

But since there are no patches for those commands (I've searched) , they may not be available for HP-UX 10.20...

Best Regards,

Eric Antunes

I'm not sure I understand how a xmodmap patch
will help you. A patch on HP-UX is a fix for a defect
in a product. So you are supposed to install a patch
only if you have the product already present and has
a defect that the patch is supposed to fix. Since you
don't have xmodmap on your system at all,
installing some patch that fixes some xmodmap
defect may not help you.

Hi,

I've only searched patches related with xmodmap for 10.20 and had no success.
