I am also a Linux user and it is also on laptop. I use Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn but it should be the same.
First you need to know what key you want to remap. I want to map these:

d -> Left
f -> Down
j -> Up
k -> Right

Fire up gnome-terminal and type in xmodmap -pke | less
You should see output like this:

Code:

keycode  40 = d D

keycode  41 = f F

keycode  42 = g G

keycode  43 = h H

keycode  44 = j J

keycode  45 = k K

You need these keycodes and keysyms. Now I know that:
d = 40 = d
f = 41 = f
j = 44 = j
k = 45 = k

Open up your favorite text editor and then type in this code:

Code:

# Remap keycode to Left Down Up Right

xmodmap -e "keycode 40 = Left"

xmodmap -e "keycode 41 = Down"

xmodmap -e "keycode 44 = Up"

xmodmap -e "keycode 45 = Right"



# Wait for press enter

echo "Press enter to remap map it back"

read TEMPNOTHINGHAHA



# Remap the keycode back to original keysym

xmodmap -e "keycode 40 = d D"

xmodmap -e "keycode 41 = f F"

xmodmap -e "keycode 44 = j J"

xmodmap -e "keycode 45 = k K"

Save it with this name: "~/remapffr"

Now whenever you want to remap the keys just open the terminal and say
sh ~/remapffr

Now the keys should be remapped. Whenever you want to map the keys back you just go back to terminal and press "enter".

Warning: May break keyboard layouts! Use it at your own risk!

Thank you much, I ended up breaking my keyboard settings as you warned but it was easily fixed after resetting it to the default qwerty config.

Re: Mapping Keys in FFR (WITH IMAGES)

Any key mapping techniques for Mac OS X? I'm using a Macbook Pro, which has absolutely tiny arrow keys, which are now holding me back on some songs..

Perhaps you should edit out the giant red print that says otherwise.

Re: Mapping Keys in FFR (WITH IMAGES)

I don't care much, but moved them right above "R1 only" codes.

Re: Mapping Keys in FFR (WITH IMAGES)

You are allowed to bump stickies. Just ask a mod or admin to delete this.

Re: Mapping Keys in FFR (WITH IMAGES)

What the mods need to do is put away irrelevant or old stickys that don't apply anymore.

Re: Mapping Keys in FFR (WITH IMAGES)

I'm sure some people still use some of these, but this isn't needed to be a sticky anymore.
