Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pommed
Testing with Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 4. Manually changed System -> Preferences
-> Keyboard to "Apple: MacBook / MacBook Pro (Intel)", but no change.
Apparently Ubuntu does not know what to do with the key second right to
the space key (the key right next to the space key is the "Apple" key
which also is right left to the space key) which should probably do the
job of the AltGr key.
Fn - ctrl - alt - Apple key - SPACE - Apple key - strange key which
probably should do the job of AltGr - < key etc.
Note that normally on modern Macs you get the "@" symbol pressing some
key + the letter "l" key. At the moment, with Ubuntu, things work
neither the Mac way nor the usual PC way. (I suppose it would be useful
to use the PC way.)
This goes for a German keyboard tested. I assume it's the same with
other languages' keyboards (English keyboards have th "@" on "q", too,
right?).
