While there is a similar question [how to make Mac keyboard like Ubuntu][1], I would like to raise the reverse question: How to make Ubuntu keyboard like Mac? I like for instance <kbd>cmd ⌘</kbd> to work as <kbd>ctrl</kbd> (i.e. To press <kbd>cmd ⌘</kbd>+<kbd>C</kbd> for copy in Ubuntu). This makes the life easier when using an Ubuntu virtual machine on Mac, no need anymore to think if you are doing on Mac or virtual Ubuntu.
