[SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

UPDATE: See pabloc's post for a solution. keyboard plugin of gnome-settings-daemon was overriding Xmodmap bindings.

-------------

After a pacman -Syu today, ~/.Xmodmap is no longer being loaded on login. Running `xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap` in a terminal window causes the entire DE (Cinnamon) to freeze, and it fixes itself after a minute or so (terminal window closes).

Here is my ~/.xinitrc

#!/bin/sh
if [ -f $HOME/.Xmodmap ]; then
    /usr/bin/xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap
fi
exec gnome-session-cinnamon

I haven't modified ~/.Xmodmap recently, and it was working fine prior to the update. The only modifications are swapping of the PgUp/PgDn keys with Home/End because ThinkPads have them in a weird spot.

Here are my pacman.log entries from today:

Re: [SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

I've done a bit more playing around with this. It seems running xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap does work, it's just very slow and CPU-hungry. Reducing my .Xmodmap file to include only the overrides (4 of them) allows it to complete in about a second.

However, it's still not being loaded on login, despite being in .xinitrc. In order to get my keybinds to work in a program, I need to open a terminal, run xmodmap manually, then execute whatever program I want them to work in.

I tried downgrading xf86-input-evdev but my keyboard no longer worked on boot, once the display manager appeared (and I couldn't switch TTYs with Ctrl+Shift+F*).

Re: [SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

I have this same problem, but sadly I have not encountered a solution. EDIT: I do not experience slow loading of my ~/.Xmodmap. But the call to xmodmap in ~/.xinitrc seems to be always missed.

In my case, it started with a system update done on the 3rd. Last working update took place the 31st.

I am making a wild guess here – perhaps this is related to D-Bus in some way. I am having problems with other programs, since that very update, which all seem to involve D-Bus.

Re: [SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

Still haven't found a solution for this. ~/.Xmodmap is almost surely being loaded (I inserted a touch command immediately aftwards in .xinitrc, and it was run), so it would seem it's being overridden at some point in the DE start-up process.

The whole [keypress] -> [application event] process seems very complex, so I'm not sure where else I should attempt to remap these keys...

Re: [SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

It turns out, in my case, that gnome-settings-daemon was overriding my ~/.Xmodmap settings. I turned off its ‘keyboard’ plugin and now my settings are kept after starting gnome-session.

To disable the ‘keyboard’ plugin:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.keyboard active false

Awesome, this fixed it for me too. Thanks!
