I would like to set the right Alt key as a Page up key.

Currently I have the following set which gets half of what I want done.

key <MENU> { [ Next ] };

I have tried xmodmap and it doesn't work for reassigning the right alt key.

Thank you!

For newer versions of Ubuntu, Xmodmap works but after you reboot, you lose your keymappings! Instead what I did was to edit the xbd file (/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc).

In this case you would add the following entries:

key <FK09> { [Print] };
key <FK10> { [Scroll_Lock] };

Then clear the xkb settings cache:

rm -rf /var/lib/xkb/*

After a reboot your keys are mapped corectly. If you need more help with this see my post on remapping keys in Ubuntu 15.04
