I have been using xorg-6.7 since I upgraded to FC 3. The reason is that
Emacs's meta key, which is required in order to be able to use Emacs
conveniently, is broken by xorg-x11-6.8. I reported this with Bugzilla
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=139424), but there
hasn't been any response.

Has anyone managed to get the meta key (using either alt or the logo
key) to work under the Emacs and xorg that are part of the FC 3
distribution?

Any suggestions or news about any developments toward resolving this
problem would be much appreciated.
