Hi,

Since emerging firefox1.0 on my amd64-box with xorg6.8.2/kde3.3.2, I have problems with my keymap.
I use a azerty-be keyboard (ps/2 logitech w/multimediakeys). Before emerging firefox all was fine.

Problem description: AltGr-key doesn't work anymore after normal startup (kdm in default runlever): e.g., typing '@' requires AltGr-'é' ('é' corresponds to qwerty-us '2').
KDE-apps return the unmodified symbol and firefox returns nothing.

Using

~$ setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout be -variant iso-alternate

gets things working perfectly.

I would like to have this behavior at startup (evidently).

Additional relevant-seeming info (from KDE/X11-log):

The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning: Multiple symbols for level 4/group 1 on key <LSGT>
> Using backslash, ignoring brokenbar
> Warning: Symbol map for key <LSGT> redefined
> Using last definition for conflicting fields
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server

Bye,

Erik

Resolved by re-emerging X.org.
