French keyboard on X

[Jean-Philippe FASSINO]

Hello,

I have problem on debian sid, debian kernel 2.4.16 and X 4.1.
I cannot hit composed char like pipe and  braket, etc.
But all work well on console.
Does anyone solve this problem ??

Thanks

JP

So it's shift-apple/cmd.

Oh, and while we're at it, I noticed this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]> xmodmap -pk|grep Mode_switch   ~
 64 0xffe9 (Alt_L)  0xff7e (Mode_switch)   


So shift-alt/option is the 'AltGr' a lot of people are desperately
looking for. :)


Sure, this is the information i'am looking for since many days !
Now my french keyboard can do  "~[{}] ." ;-)
For people which has the same problem do :
   xmodmap -e 'keycode 115 = Meta_L Multi_key'
   xmodmap -e 'keycode 64 = Alt_L Mode_switch'

Thanks for the information

Jean-Philippe
