I use this in my ~/.xmodmaprc
!---------------------
clear mod1
clear mod2
clear mod3
clear mod4
clear mod5
keycode 115 = Meta_L
keycode 116 = Meta_R
keycode 64 = Alt_L
keycode 117 = Menu
add mod1 = Alt_L
add mod4 = Meta_L Meta_R
add mod5 = Menu
!---------------------
This bind Meta to those keys with a flying window (whatever that is
supposed to represent)...
And the Alt key becomes Alt_L
Maybe this is what you want.
