Does anyone have a clue on what the problem can be? Everything else works fine, just my AltGr button that does't work.

Is there a keymap switcher like it is in windows(alt + shift)?
Running Slackware 9.1 on a IbmThinkpad T30.

Is it working outside X? If yes, then please provide the setup of your keyboard from XF86Config.

My default layout is english, so outside X i don't use norwegian layout. How can I switch layout outside X to check if it works there?

Anyway the only thing I have in XF86Config is

Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "Keyboard"

Update:
It works fine in Opera 7.21. There I'm able to use the altgr key. It also works in C++BuilderX.
Not in shell, kate, kwrite. There is the altgr key dead.

You change the language in /etc/rc.d/rc.keymap
There should be something like:
if [ -x /usr/bin/loadkeys ]; then
/usr/bin/loadkeys xxxx.map
fi
Now I have no idea which one you should use for an Norwedian keyboard. My own is dk-latin1.map for danish

Concerning X, you should try running xf86config and choose the right keyboard layout , and choose the rigth country. I just tried running it you should choose 53 for norwegian.
At the variant option just press enter for default and enter on the XKB option as well.

After running xf86config your XF86Config file should contain something like this (With another language ofcourse )

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "Keyboard"
Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105" //might be different
Option "XkbLayout" "dk" //Should be 'no' I think.
EndSection

There is no rc.keymap.

Well then make one =)

Here is one:
1 #!/bin/sh
2 # Load the keyboard map. More maps are in /usr/share/kbd/keymaps.
3 if [ -x /usr/bin/loadkeys ]; then
4 /usr/bin/loadkeys dk-latin1.map
5 fi

The rc.M should check if there is one in the rc.d library, and loads it if it exists. Just make sure it is executable.

The altgr works utside X. rc.keymap loads no-latin1.map. But in x altgr is still dead.
My XF86Config is now the same as the example you gave, with no instead of dk.

#showkey gives me keycode 100 for altgr, so it's not totally dead.

Well, if I use a different layout than us english as default, it some how works fine. So what i had to do is to use norwegian as default language and us english as secondary. So it is kind of a solution then. I'll buy that.


Does anyone knows why?
