im posting this bug (again) in hope that somebody will care, and that it eventually will be fixed.

with norwegian (and several other, like all scandinavian, italian, german,ect.) keymaps the Alt Gr key is not working in Firefox or Opera,
effectively disabling the @£${[]}´€~ symbols, @ being The showstopper.

i would have looked into this myself if i had the knowledge to fix it,
which i don't.

Thanks again

Same problem in Danish.
Seems like Firefox has the Alt-Gr keys switched with the Shift keys.
If i press Alt-Gr+2 nothing happens, but if I use Shift+2 I get @ symbol.

no, its not working with the shift key...
thats the US layout (u need to restart x to load keymaps)
quit x (ctrl+alt+backspace) and type loadkeys dk or dk-latin1
and then startx to restart x
and you will find that its not working

Hi Y'all!

I have the same problem with my swedish keyboard. I workaround this using openoffice. I write, let's say, an e-mail sddress and then copy and paste it from openoffice.

Have fun but stay out of trouble,
meo
