Something in gconf/dconf? - For the non-visible indicator problem: Run this from a terminal (don't worry, it is harmless, you are only requesting for a variable value): gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.indicator show-flags And put here the result. - For the layout issue: Try by ading a different layout (e.g., "International with dead keys AltGr") and check if that works by pressing "AltGr+E" which should return an accented "é".
