After some quick searching, I found a blog and some forum discussions about the fix, granted it took 2 years from thread starting to solution being provided, but this is it…

xmodmap -e “keycode 53 = x X greater greater greater greater”
xmodmap -e “keycode 52 = z Z less less less less”
xmodmap -e “keycode 24 = q Q at at at at”

As i’m sure you’ll agree, thanks go out to those involved! No more copy pasting one from the Windows machine! :D
