I am sorry to bother you with this off-topic question, but I really
tried to get answers from emacs newgroup beforehand...

So: I am using emacs on my university, and my keyboard does not
recognize the L-ALT key as META: I have to use ESC which is heavy for me
(I used to Alt at home).
Does anyone have an Emacs-oriented easy trick (a binding for
instance)for making it work (At my university I will have problems to
perform deep X configurations).

Thank you for your patience.

Fortunately, changing X keybindings isn't deep configuration.  Start
by reading the xmodmap(1) manual.
