Oh that sounds very good.  Ctrl-Alt-Backspace is such a nuisance because
I keep hitting that in Emacs.  To me it's the natural "delete expression
backwards".  So I had to turn it off for X.

Only problem is, I'm still with xmodmap, since I couldn't make head or
tail of XKB.  Could you send me a config file, where all
Ctrl-Alt-specials are replaced by Hyper-specials (Ctrl-Hyper for the
function keys)?  Plus maybe a little link or instruction on where to get
started with this?

Thank you very much in advance!  Btw. what version of XFree86 is needed?
