Using Virtual Box on laptop in full screen (Host+F) with external Sun4 USB keyboard. I wanted to map the Host key, right control key (Control_R) on laptop to that of the Right Meta (Meta_R) key on USB keyboard as the former isn’t available on Sun4 keyboard.
$ cat vboxhost
remove mod4 = Meta_R
keysym Meta_R = Control_R
$ xmodmap -verbose vboxhost
! vboxhost:
! 1: remove mod4 = Meta_R
! Keysym Meta_R (0xffe8) corresponds to keycode(s) 0x74
remove mod4 = 0x74
! 2: keysym Meta_R = Control_R
! Keysym Meta_R (0xffe8) corresponds to keycode(s) 0x74
keycode 0x74 = Control_R
!
! executing work queue
!
remove mod4 = 0x74
keycode 0x74 = Control_R
