Without Linux & ssh, the ALT key *didn't* work with xterm, and not
for urxvt (regardless, it seemed, of .Xresources & xrdb), and
*not* for a GUI Emacs, but it *did* work for 'emacs -nw' in the
*default Solaris terminal*, in which the ALT key worked as Meta as
well (that is, in the terminal itself, for cursor movements,
etc.).
I don't know what terminal that is, because I didn't invoke it
from the shell, but by clicking on a black squared icon (a
terminal), which had the caption "Terminal". I didn't spend a
fraction of the time with Solaris that I did with Debian, so I
think this is a far as I can help you. I'm (not) on SunOS 5.10, if
that helps.
It worked in the following cases:
- ssh from a Linux VT (tty), run Emacs
- 'ssh -Y' from Linux X & urxvt, then use 'emacs -nw' or the GUI
Emacs (just 'emacs'), both works (the GUI Emacs also works from
xterm with this method, as it doesn't matter from where it is
invoked)
- without ssh, with the default terminal *and* 'emacs -nw'
I take it you don't want to ssh from Linux, so perhaps you should
drop xterm, and use the default terminal? It seems to be good
enough.
