Welcome to the wonderful world of X11R4! For some strange, unknown reason, HP
has changed the labels of some of the Apollo keys, but not all. See the file
named XKeysymDB in the /usr/X11/lib directory for some of them. For the rest, you
need to use the R3 versions of the names. Alternatedly, you can get the MIT distribution
of X11R4 compile it and use their xmodmap, the Apollo R3 doesn't give the right
information. The only other thing you should be careful of is trying to use the
shifted versions of the keys. Shift<key>apGrow is recognized, but <key>apMove is
not... One more bit of information for you, the xterm pop-up menus cause 
the xterm to die. HP is looking at the problem now. Hope this helps!
