[BLUG] keyboard confusion

I'm using Synergy/QuickSynergy to control my Ubuntu computer from my
Powerbook, but the keyboard mapping thing has me thoroughly confused.

It looks like Synergy has some keyboard layout options, and on top of
this Gnome has plenty too... For starters, what are the meta, super,
windows, alt, and third level chooser keys? What would be the best way
to map the control key in Ubuntu to either my Apple or Control key, and
the alt key to my alt/option key? Should I focus on configuring Synergy
or Gnome? Do you know whether I can get QuickSynergy to use a particular
configuration file? I like it because it gives my wife an easy way to
turn on/off Synergy as she needs to.

If somebody would be interesting in giving me some quick orientation
here, I'd be grateful!

Re: [BLUG] Gutsy question

I dunno, I'll double-check when I get home. I DID go through an
upgrade on our "Media Center", and on Sarah's laptop...It looks like
you're right on the money there, the old "Desktop Effects" dialog is
still present. Poo.
