AltGr key not working in X
Well, my AltGr key just stopped working after my last reboot couple days ago,
I'm using a Belgian (be) keyboard (azerty). I get this error message: "The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: > Error: Can't find file "aliases" for keycodes include > Exiting > Abandoning keycodes file "default" Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: > Error: Can't find file "unknown" for geometry include > Exiting > Abandoning geometry file "default"" Everything is ok in the XF86Config file, I'm using the same one for a long long time now. |

Could a moderator move this thread to the debian section please? Maybe I'll have more luck there. thx |
After a long time searching I did a drastic step,
I forced xbase-clients, xlibs-data and xlibs to uninstall, rm'd /etc/X11/xkb and reinstalled them. That didn't work either, so I dpkg -i --force-confmiss them again and now it works again. I don't think I will get any, but if anyone wants to give feedback on those actions, I will be gratefull. I don't feel that was the best way to handle the problem. It's like reinstalling something because a feature doesn't work or rebooting when X hangs. |
