Yes it's executable...I'll try again and get back.
BTW in response to your statement that you think
xmodmap only gets run when xdm is used, I mentioned in
previous posts that the xmodmap command is being
issued from xinitrc-common as far as I can tell
because I wrapped the statement where xmodmap runs
~/.Xmodmap and the two statements wrapping the
'xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap' statement both are run.
For example, I changed the code in xinitrc-common to
something like:
touch /root/something
xmodmap <user's home dir>/.Xmodmap
touch /root/something2
then I come into /root and see the two files.
