Alt-R+a is xmodmapped to ä over here with the same settings that work
at a friend's 3.3.3.1 XF86 machine. I run 4.2.1 from testing here and
it doesn't:
KeyRelease event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x12800001,
root 0x26, subw 0x0, time 669827654, (119,76), root:(745,326),
state 0x2000, keycode 38 (keysym 0xe4, adiaeresis), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 characters: ""
It produces the correct keysym ("adiaeresis"), but nothing is echoed
to my terminal or whatever application.
these are the options for the keyboard:
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
How can I make it produce the ä character, which is adiaeresis on my
system? Where does the error lie?
