Here's the problem -- you need xmodmap installed on the server. (It
might be part of a package called "x11-xserver-utils" or something
like that.)

Also, there's a bug -- xpra tries to tell you what the problem is, but
in 0.0.6 that error-reporting code doesn't actually work :-). That'll
be fixed in the next release.
