No, but your e-mail solved me another problem anyway (using the new DRI
savage driver lost my slash (/) key)

It appeared as F13, thus now allowing combination.

There's no such mapping leaving it alone on both br-abnt2 keyboards and
us-intl-accents (don't remember the exact name), that's why I mapped it
to F13 (following someone's advice from the list)

My one: 
xmodmap:  up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
 
shift       Shift_L (0x32),  Shift_R (0x3e)
lock        Caps_Lock (0x42)
control     Control_L (0x25),  Control_R (0x6d)
mod1        Alt_L (0x40)
mod2        Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4
mod5        Scroll_Lock (0x4e)

It doesn't work.
[surak at casa surak]$ xmodmap -e "mod4 = Super_L"
xmodmap:  unknown command on line commandline:0
xmodmap:  1 error encountered, aborting.

If I map it using xmodmap -e "keycode 115 = Super_L"
It does it correctly as a key, but not as a modifier.

If I map 
xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Super_L"
I can use it as a modifier, but not as a key anymore (ie works SuperL +
R to run app, but just pressing it does nothing)

If I open the keyboard shortcuts BEFORE adding mod4 to maps, I can map
it to open gnome menu, and if I open if AFTER, it does nothing.
