Howto (re)enable dead keys?

[Ernst Martin Witte <witte@kawo1.rwth-aachen.de>]

Hello!

How can I enable dead keys in XF86? On my console dead keys work very well.
If I use startx, dead keys are disabled. If I use kdm, dead keys work in the
login dialog, but after login, my dead keys are gone.

My deadkey line in XF86Config is:

#    XkbVariant  "nodeadkeys"      

How are these dead keys disabled? How can I get them back?

Thanks in advance, 
 
   Martin
