Follow up on my own note. I've now tried setting my keyboard to "us_intl" instead of "us" and also fails to produce any accented characters, though in this configuration when I ssh to machine one (the one which works correctly) I can't produce accented characters in that session either.
Help is still appreciated. rw2 Rich Wellner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > I have two debian boxes and unable to get accented characters to work.
