No AltGr in X and something else...
I'm using ion2 and I can't get AltGr characters in any app.
However it works in command line outside X...
My kbmap is pt-latin9.
is this a xorg or a ion problem?
Something else:
How do I change the default font size in xterm?

Does
setxkbmap ptwork? If yes, put it in your .xinitrc or .xsession
Something else:

Put
xterm*faceSize: 14 in ~/.Xdefaults (14 is the default size)
Run: xrdb .Xdefaults
and start xterm to check the changes. I haven't tried it, though.

Re: No AltGr in X and something else...
setxkbmap pt
worked fine.
As for the xterm font size, I don't have any ~/.Xdefaults.

Create it if it doesn't exist.
EDIT: ~/.Xdefaults specifies resource (here it's faceSize) for X apps. If you want to further customize xterm or any other X apps, read the man pages.

Re: No AltGr in X and something else...
Snowman,
I created ~/.Xdefaults with:
xterm*faceSize: 18
then I did
xrdb -all .Xdefaults
I checked with
xrdb -all -query and it confirmed command in .Xdefaults, restarted x but font size didn't change...

Re: No AltGr in X and something else...
It looks like support for faceSize isn't compiled for xterm. Try instead:
xterm*font: -*-fixed-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*You can replace 14 with 15, 18 or 20 for bigger font size. I tried it this time and they all works.
