It is my understanding that Ctrl+Alt+K will allow you to switch between different keyboard layouts (if you are a KDE user). Have you tried that? I am not familiar with the special characters you mentioned. If your keyboard layout is different from QWERTY and includes the desired accents, you can try what I do with my Spanish-accented words: for example. to type an [acute] accented 'e' I type <single-quote><e>. I can only suggest that you try <accent><letter> combinations to see if they result in the desired special characters.
