I'm on a Dell Mini 910 with English keyboard and Ubuntu 11.10 also in English, and I want to keep it this way. But most of my typing is in Spanish so I need the AltGr key to get Spanish characters without switching my keyboard layout.



How can I map the Menu Key to AltGr?



Thanks.

          I assume this is to be done in X.



          It can be done with 'xmodmap'.



          xmodmap -e "keysym Menu = ISO_Level3_Shift"


          Put the following in the the file '.Xmodmap' in your home directory to make it load automatically when logging in.



          keysym Menu = ISO_Level3_Shift

          • You point me into the right direction. This what works for me:clear mod3 keysym Menu = Mode_switch add mod3 = Mode_switch

          2 I'm trying to set the .DisplayMember property of a ComboBox in C#, but I want to bind it to multiple columns in the .DataSouce .

          Is it possible to collect Nectar points via Trainline?

          Image
          2 Since I am not eligible for any Railcard, the only available discount/bonus scheme is Nectar Card for me. GWR, SWR, LNER and Virgin Trains allow to collect Nectar points and I have already linked a card to my GWR account. A friend suggested me to use Trainline App, because it can search for bus tickets either. I had a look at the application, but could not see any option for Nectar. Is there a way to collect Nectar points when I buy tickets via Trainline? uk trains loyalty-programs trainline share | improve this question asked Dec 2 '18 at 15:50 ahmedus 3,224 5 19 49
