Thanks for your help!
1.
I edited XF86Config-4 and .xmodmaprc as suggested.
2.
But @ still won't work. Instead I get:
Alt-Gr = ç.
I get no #, |, [, ], {, }, etc. but ¶, µ, ....
My XF86Config-4 looks like this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "macintosh"
Option "XkbLayout" "de_CH(extended)"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
My .xmodmaprc looks like this:
! keycode and keysym remapping should generally be used only if the X
! server does not use the XKEYBOARD extension (i.e., there is a
uncommented
! line "XkbDisable" in the keyboard section of /etc/X11/XF86Config)
! Note that keyboard keycodes are determined by the internal
electronics of
! keyboard, not the host architecture. For instance, PC keyboards are
! commonly found on machines other than Intel 80x86-compatibles.
keycode 10 = 1 plus bar onesuperior
keycode 11 = 2 quotedbl at twosuperior
keycode 12 = 3 asterisk numbersign threesuperior
keycode 13 = 4 dollar EuroSign onequarter
keycode 14 = 5 percent onehalf cent
keycode 15 = 6 ampersand yen fiveeighths
keycode 16 = 7 slash bar division
keycode 17 = 8 parenleft braceleft guillemotleft
keycode 18 = 9 parenright braceright guillemotright
keycode 19 = 0 equal braceright degree
keycode 94 = less greater backslash
keycode 21 = dead_circumflex quoteleft dead_tilde
keycode 34 = udiaeresis egrave bracketleft
keycode 47 = odiaeresis eacute
keycode 48 = adiaeresis agrave
keycode 49 = section degree
keycode 35 = dead_diaeresis exclam bracketright
keycode 37 = Control_L
keycode 64 = Meta_L
!keycode 66 = Caps_Lock
! There is no Delete key on Apple keyboard, some X apps need it
keycode 22 = BackSpace Terminate_Server Delete
! Soft-LineBreak key -> Compose
keycode 108 = Multi_key
! Apple key -> AltGR
keycode 115 = Mode_switch
% xmodmap -pm returns:
xmodmap: up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Meta_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x71)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4
mod5 Scroll_Lock (0x4e)
Is there any other way to fix this?

Hi,
On 2 Dec, this message from nico dreher echoed through cyberspace:
I am looking for an ALT- and CTRL- configuration on a Swiss German
qwertz keyboard (PowerBook G3 Lombard).
I tried the sample .Xmodmap from
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2003/debian-powerpc-200308/
msg00182.html (see quoted below).
However I am looking for an .Xmodmap that behaves like on a standard
Macintosh keyboard, i.e. @ = ALT + g, # = ALT + 3, | = ALT + 7, etc.
How about the one attached below? It's for my swiss-french keyboard,
but
I suppose most of the things you're looking for are identical.
Physically swiss french and swiss german keyboards are identical. The
keymap only differs in wheter you have to press shift for äöü or éàè. I
was also looking for a good swiss mac keymap and thought about creating
one. But because my solution worked most of the time I did not get to
actually do it. Here is what I use:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "macintosh"
Option "XkbLayout" "de_CH(extended)"
EndSection
and "keycode 115 = Mode_switch" in .xmodmaprc
This makes the key labeld "alt" behave like in macos for key
combinations (eg. alt-g is @) and the apple/option key works as real
alt
(eg. for switching consoles, closing windows, ...)
