Hi, I'm running kernel 2.4.18pre1 with testing. I cannot compose characters with Multi_key in Xfree86 4.1. I have got a Multi_key according to xev
KeyPress event, serial 23, synthetic NO, window 0xe00001, root 0x58, subw 0x0, time 1386270115, (103,176), root:(245,318), state 0x0, keycode 116 (keysym 0xff20, Multi_key), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 characters: "" /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 says Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "keyboard" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection I would like to create the german a umlaut with <Multi_key><"><a> as it has always been the way before reinstalling after a hard drive crash. What's wrong? What's missing? Where can I find documentation about all those options for the keyboard section? Armin
