AltGr key does not work
Dear All,
after upgrading Debian to Sarge the AltGr key stop working properly. I am using German Keyboard. I can not get |, @, ~ symbols. This only happens in KDE. In Konsole everything works fine. I tried to choose different keyboard layouts in Control Center but it did not help. I tried xmodmap -e "keycode 113 = Mode_switch" but it also did not help my XF86Config-4: Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" (I also tried 104) Option "XkbLayout" "de" I have this problem on my Notebook. Thanks a lot in advance Oleg |
try:
dpkg-reconfigure console-data reboot |
Well I from sweden and have the same problem.. with the Debian installer rc1..
|
I don't use kde nor gnome, i use icewm, well, i installed sarge via cd1 and then dist-upgraded to sarge, i did a 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86' after the upgrade, and in the keyboard section, instead of typing 'pc 104' i typed my keyboard model:
Logitech iTouch and on the next screen: es for the spanish keyboard altgr works perfectly, try that, maybe it'll work for ya. |
setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model pc105 -layout de -option ""
done the job Where shell I place this command to make X or KDE execute it on startup? |
OlegL.many thanks for your info,I had the same problem and it solved it.
About your question,you can write the line in your ~/.bashrc and it will be loaded anytime you start konsole. |
