A little help please to confirm this before I file a bug report.
I upgraded to XFree86-4.4.0 which went quite well.
However, I found that although I had selected the standard US Keyboard
layout that I had dead keys. It works perfectly, but I hadn't selected
dead keys.
I find that the problem appears to be the configuration. If I enter in a
Konsole:
setxkbmap -model pc101 -layout us -variant basic
Then it works correctly. However, that option is not available in the
Keyboard Layout KCM. For the standard US English layout, the only:
"variant" in the listbox is: "Intl".
Could someone that still has XFree86-4.3.0 please check and see which
"variant"s are listed for US English?
Another odd thing, editing the "kxkbrc" file by hand does not fix the problem.
