My .Xmodmap was still running when X was starting up and *subsequently* running xmodmap was causing the errors I posted. It was the following lines, which were OK under Xorg-7.4, that were causing the problems: keycode 117 =3D Mode_switch clear Mod3 add Mod3 =3D Mode_switch % xmodmap .Xmodmap X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 118 (X_SetModifierMapping) Value in failed request: 0x17 Serial number of failed request: 14 Current serial number in output stream: 14 After removing the above three lines, everything else was working.
