Xgl and the AltGr key

Posted in KDE, Linux at 10:10 pm by are

After installing Ubuntu Edgy and tried Xgl I suddenly noticed that the AltGr button did not work. So writing $ and any of the {[]} was impossible. (Norwegian keyboard setup).

The solution is simple:

Create the file ~/.Xmodmap

keycode 22 = BackSpace
keycode 113 = Mode_switch

Make sure it loads when loading Xgl
