  Well, you can first have a look at /etc/X11/XF86Config, in the
Section "Keyboard" . Mine has the following :

# To set the LeftAlt to Meta, RightAlt key to ModeShift,
# RightCtl key to Compose, and ScrollLock key to ModeLock:

#    LeftAlt     Meta
     RightAlt    ModeShift
#    RightCtl    Compose
#    ScrollLock  ModeLock
#    XkbDisable
    XkbKeymap   "xfree86(fr)"

The first defines how the flags describing the Modifiers are mapped to
the keys.

  You can also change the keymap dynamically using xmodmap command.
Have a look at the Thot/config/amaya.keyboard file to check the current
accelerators mapping.
