xmodmap not working in .xinitrc
 

I am using xmodmap to remap my mouse buttons. The command works fine if i issue it manually, but I am unable to get X to issue it upon startup. Here is my .xinitrc file:

And yes, its executable...

Thanks for any help.

Looks to me as if it is a script within xinitrc, remove the "#!/bin/sh". Open xinitrc as root in an editor of your choice, and put this in there BEFORE the startkde line.

# xmouse config
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8"

Save the file, and restart "x"
