MacBook Keyboard Issue

I have a MacBook core 2 duo, on which I am running Kubuntu. This laptops
come with just one control key, and two Apple (or win) keys, located at both
sides of the space bar. I write in spanish, so I configured kbd, through
kcontrol, to allow me to switch between keyboard layouts.
The problem is that I would like to switch the position of control and Apple
keys, but it has been impossible:
1. xmodmap wont work, since kbd overrides the position of the modifier keys
2. kcontrol section option "use mac modifiers" changes the behaviour of the
shortcuts, but when I reboot the system the position of control and apple
goes back to the old one.
3. xkb options does not allow the switch, as far as I have digged into the
(very confusing) documentation of it.
Please help me. It is really annoying, specially when I am using emacs, to
lack two control keys, and have the only one available so far away from the
position of my thumbs!
