I'm using one of those windows keyboards with netbsd 1.4/i386. Using
xev, pressing the ``windows'' key or the ``menu'' key generates the
output listed below (same general output for both menu and windows
keys).

So: how would I go about mapping these keys to something useful? I'd
like to make them into bona fide meta keys, or even an extra set of esc
keys. Better question: is it even possible to remap these keys?

KeyPress event, serial 21, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x3c00002, time 2527091882, (34,50), root:(817,225),
    state 0x0, keycode 115 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 21, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,
    root 0x26, subw 0x3c00002, time 2527091969, (34,50), root:(817,225),
    state 0x0, keycode 115 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""
