.xmodmap doesnt load at startx [SOLVED]

[Efo]

Hi guys,

I have a couple of extra button on my keyboard and I assigned them a keycode.
If I run the command "xmodmap .xmodmap" everything works fine, but I have to run it everytime I startxr. Shouldnt the file .xmodmap be read automatically when I startx ? (I also tried putting the new keys in .Xmodmap).

Thanx

kamesky,

Thank you for your help.
I wanted to avoid doing that , and fortunately I found the problem.
The file startx wasnt loading /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and it was loading /home/user/.xinitrc instead. Now I have the startx file loading /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc in which it was already specified to load /home/user/.xinitrc.
In /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc I have :
....
sysmodmap=$xinitdir/.Xmodmap
...
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
...

and finally everything work!

Thanks!
