In KDE 3.5 I had my own xmodmap.sh file in autostart which assigned
the WinKey to launch the KMenu.  This file no longer works with KDE4.4
I have been able to reprogram my multimedia keys using KCC >Computer Administration>
Input Actions.
I have searched the web as well as the Forum and can't find any method that will reformat the
key from Super_L modifier type key to a single value (ie. F14)

I don't need the key as a Meta key but I can't for the life of me figure out how to modify the
keycode.  Closest I could get was to revise the default keyboard shortcut to Win + Space.
