Keyboard Problem

Backspace Key Does Not Work in DOS (Windows 95 Only)

Do not map the Delete key to the Backspace key. If you do this, you will not have a Backspace key available when you are working with DOS applications. When you press the Backspace key, it will not backspace, but will instead delete the character at the current cursor location. If you have mapped these two keys by modifying your .xinitrc file, there will be a line in the file that reads: xmodmap -e keycode 50 = delete. You should remove this line to restore the original key assignments.
