[Solved] Keyboard layout problem.

This is my first post here on the archlinux forums. So far i'm loving this distro but i have one crucial problem!

I'm using the icelandic keyboard layout "is-latin1" and there are some characters that don't work.

"^ | ~ @" - these are the ones that i can't write I have to find them somewhere and use copy/paste. These are all characters that have an "ALT GR +" combination. And they're the only ones that don't work!

And I'm using kdemod3.

Maybe there is a way to bind these in kde3, they seem to work fine in "Runlevel 3", They just don't work in gnome or kde.

Hope this isn't to confusing, tried my best to make it as understandable as possible considering English is not my native language.

Thanks!

Fuck me, this was just a silly issue! I had to set the keyboard layout in KDE to Icelandic!

Problem solved! Move along before you get infected with stupidity!
