Just to be sure, are you talking about the "Compose" key? or something else ? > This function is mapped to <shift><alt gr> for ages now.

How did it work before? Was it configured by default? Or did you configure something using xmodmap (in your .xsession for instance)? Note that it could also be related to your window manager. I know that for instance Gnome has some "special keys" configuration options. Did you check there? Do you have any idea whether it worked under any other WM before? Anyway, could you send us your xorg.conf, the output of "setxkbmap -print" and "xmodmap -pk"? thanks, Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
