I just switched to console login and starting X via startx using ion as
window manager.
The AltGr key on my keyboard stopped working since then. If I start the
gnome-keyboard-properties tool, it works but only within the gnome-
keyboard-properties window.
I get the following messages on console when starting X:
expected keysym, got XF86KbdLightOnOff: line 70 of pc
expected keysym, got XF86KbdBrightnessDown: line 71 of pc
expected keysym, got XF86KbdBrightnessUp: line 72 of pc

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning: Type "ONE_LEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 symbols
> Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
The keyboard section of my xorg.conf looks like this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
If I run xev and press AltGr+q for example I get the following output on
console:

If I press AltGr+q within an xterm nothing happens. So it seems to me
that the key is recognized but not printed?!?
My .xsession :
if [ -e ~/.Xmodmap ]; then
/usr/bin/xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
fi
/usr/bin/urxvtd -q -o -f
/usr/bin/docker >/dev/null &
/usr/bin/xscreensaver -nosplash >/dev/null &
ion3
