it does! but i searched for a way to get along with the running auto-conf stuff...
in the meantime i played around with the settings-menu of gnome and tryed to modify
the layout, dead-keys and caps-lock behaviour there, and i managed to neutralize the capslock
(YEAH!) found out that i have a "compose" functionality to generate the accented chars on a
german kbd (at least my french friends will stop yelling at me for not writing our the accents)
but the compose is still less fast than dead-keys....
despite the fact of having changed the kbd layout to german, instead of german-nodeadkeys, i still haven't any deadkeys available....
ah and strange part, the xorg file changed! the keyboard part vanished from the conf file....
so if someone has a hint on how to get the dead-keys working....
