Alt_Gr Problem in X, need help



Hi,

I using Debian Testing with XFree86 4.1 and after solving the problem with
the missing "fixed" font. I have another problem.

the Alt_Gr (Right Alt) key is not working, I've tried to change it with
xmodmap but with no success. The problem is the keyboard which have a
portuguese QWERTY layout needs the combination of ALT_GR + [7-9] to get the
braces and brackets symbols. 

If I rum xev or xkeycaps these programs report the right key and symbols for
every key on the keyboard but in other programs like terminal shells and
editors the ALT_GR it not working, just beeps.

With potato and XF 3.3.* everything worked fine.

Can anybody give me a clue?


Thanks in advance.
