I went out to carve some xml code that describes some new images for 
pyvcp.py code, to add a tachometer dial and a hand full of buttons to be 
tied in as tally or short subroutines, and gave up before I got done 
with the first line as I was unable to get the keyboards (2) that I 
tried, and even rebooted the pi3b once trying to get it to type a '.

The first keypress did nothing, and the second spit out a the reversed 
left for right `.  I finally did find it, on the right alt+' key combo.

Looking at the Xorg.0.log, I see this:

 13.719] (**) Option "xkb_variant" "alt-intl"

Could this be the problem?, and if so, where the heck do I turn that off.

Thanks for any enlightenment.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
