Hi Dan.

When I encountered this problem it was definitely due to the contents of
/etc/X11/xinit/Xmodmap. There was one line in that file and it caused the
bad mapping of 'e'. As soon as I deleted that line, the problem went away.
Does kdm maybe bypass the default xinitrc or override where Xmodmap is
pulled from?
