i have a modified file in /etc/xmodmap.conf that i want executed everytime someone logs in. i use gdm, so i read i should put

/usr/bin/xmodmap /etc/xmodmap.conf

in /etc/X11/gdm/PostLogin/Default

and it doesn't work.

executing

xmodmap /etc/xmodmap.conf

from the command line works.

i am using gnome 2.16 and i thought this was the right way to do this.

are there any errors being generated?

/var/log/gdm
~/.xsession-errors

Also have you tried putting the command in /etc/X11/gdm/PreSession ?

I got this from http://www.taupro.com/wiki/ChemBook/XDisplayManager Hopefully this site will help.
