You need to say something like $ setxkbmap -option compose:menu then the windows menu key becomes the compose key Or $ setxkbmap -option compose:ralt then its the right-alt You can check whats currently the state of xkb with $ setxkbmap -print And you can clean up with a bare $ setkkb -option else these options 'pile-up' as a -print would show -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
