A non-functional <>-Key can be the result of specifying a wrong keyboard type to X-windows, i.e. in xorg.conf you need Option "XkbModel" "pc105" or Option "XkbModel" "pc102" but not pc104 or 101 (which are the US-keyboards without the <> key. > Is there any way of inserting a key in Lyx, like with the alt+Number > way of entering keys.
