Keyboard Map Fix for Pipe key!

I was having trouble using my pipe key on my machine because everytime i would press it, a greater than sign would come up. Upon HOURS of searching, i finally found a fix.

  1. Go into your Users home directory, and create a new file called: .Xmodmap 
  2. Add the following lines to the file
keycode 94 = backslash bar
keycode 77 = Insert
keycode 118 = Num_Lock
clear mod2
add mod2 = Num_Lock
Save the file and log out and log back in. Your pipe key should now be working. I hope everyone finds this usefull!
