Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-4
Summary: Back slash and vertical bar keys broken under X.
System: Debian GNU/Linux sarge 2.4.25-1-k7
libc6 2.3.2.ds1-12
Details:
This is how the keyboard is configured under X,
but those two keys remain incorrecly handled:
# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
XKB rule: xfree86
Keyboard model: pc104
Keyboard layout: br
Keyboard variant: abnt2
This is a work-around for the issue:
$ xmodmap -
keycode 51 = bracketright braceright
keycode 94 = backslash bar
^D
$
For reference about the keyboard, this gives
perfect results in the console:
# dpkg-reconfigure console-data
Select keymap from arch list
Keyboard family: qwerty
Keyboard layout: Brazilian
Keyboard variant: Standard
I suppose specification for my
keyboard variant is not available
for X?

Closing as due to misconfiguration.
There's no such rules file as an "abnt2" rules file, though.
What I suggested should work according to the XKB data shipped in xlibs.
$ cat -n /etc/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86
[...]
23 ! model =3D keycodes
24 macintosh_old =3D macintosh
25 powerpcps2 =3D powerpcps2
26 pc98 =3D xfree98(pc98)
27 abnt2 =3D xfree86(abnt2)
28 * =3D xfree86
[...]
43 ! model =3D geometry
[...]
55 abnt2 =3D pc
[...]
65 ! model layout =3D symbols
[...]
67 abnt2 br =3D us(pc101)+br
[...]
(Line 55 should probably say "pc(abnt2)", not merely "pc".)
