Thanks for the replies.. SK3T, I'm not sure what you mean by disabling the keyboard software. I'm pretty familiar with xp, but I can't think of what the equivalent would be on a mac. I couldn't find it in system preferences.. and I wouldn't think I'd have to disable the keyboard for everything else just so X11 could take over, because it doesn't manage everything, only windows for applications that run on top of it.

sinclair, the X11 preferences have 'Follow system keyboard layout', and 'Enable key equivalents under X11'. Only the latter has always been checked. I've tried changing these and no luck. I don't see any options for Strict VT-100.

Thanks anyway, if you think of anything else lmk.. I'll keep digging.
