Maybe, but Emacs/GTK is the only GTK application on my system in which I
observe the problem. For instance Mozilla and gnome-terminal
distinguish the Meta and Alt keys.
KC> What does 'xmodmap -p' show
% xmodmap -p
xmodmap: up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock
control Control_L (0x42)
mod1 Alt_L (0x73), Alt_R (0x74)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d), Super_L (0x75)
mod3 Hyper_L (0x25), Hyper_R (0x6d)
mod4 Meta_L (0x40), Meta_R (0x71)
mod5 ISO_Level3_Shift (0x4e)
KC> and what does 'xev' show when you press alt/ meta?
What I expect: Meta_L for Meta and Alt_L for Alt. Don't forget,
Emacs/Athena works well.
