Hi to all,

I'm a newbie of Debian but using the Debian-Wiky I was able to install Debian 6 
as single boot, on my MacBookPro (v.3.1). The only problem I notice, till 
now...., is about the Alt key. I bought the computer as used from a German guy 
ignoring that the keyboard has the particularity to has only the left Alt key 
instead of two. So the right Alt key is replaced by a second ENTER and the left 
Alt key is used as Meta key instead of Option key.

I tried to configure the keyboard with the graphical interface but I wasn't 
able solve my problem. If, for example I press Alt+Tab, I was able to switch 
between the different windows, but the Alt key doesn't work both in the various 
text editors (emacs, gedit...) and in the terminal, to type the extra character 
such as tilde, square brackets...

I think I should re-map my keyboard replacing the extra ENTER with the 
Alt(Option) key but I have no idea how to do this.

Do you have any suggestion?

Best Ricardo
