Yes I think they are different. What compose key do you use? And how? Dead keys means: type "^" "o" in succession to get à (o-hat). Or "Â" "y" in succession to get à (y-umlaut). Or "Â" "e" to get à (e-sharp). The first keys in these pairs are dead keys and should wait for the second key press. In LyX, they don't. "^" produces a hat at first press. The worst of it is that the ^ no longer works as a superscript key in math. - Martin
