Ubuntu 11.10
First off, I'm completely new to Linux, as in I just partitioned my computer two days ago and installed Ubuntu. My tab key recently quit on me, and I would rather swap the caps lock and tab since they are in the same vicinity. I tried following this post;
How to swap/remap the CAPS LOCK key with Tab key?
but I am unable to run
xmodmap keycode 66 = Tab ISO_Left_Tab Tab ISO_Left_Tab
xmodmap: unable to open file 'keycode' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file '66' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file '=' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file 'Tab' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file 'ISO_Left_Tab' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file 'Tab' for reading
xmodmap: unable to open file 'ISO_Left_Tab' for reading
xmodmap: 7 errors encountered, aborting.
then when I tried to edit usr/bin/xmodmap, I get encoding errors in Gedit.
Any help??
