[SOLVED] Problem wit Altgr (Openbox)

teh · 2009-09-15 06:15:44

Hi, i recently install Openbox and i don't know how can i active the altgr key, this is kiling me because the lack of accents (1rst Languaje = Spanish) and i can't make work at all.

Xorg:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "Keyboard0"
    Driver      "kbd"
    Option "XkbModel" "pc101"
    Option "XkbLayout" "us"
    Option "XkbVariant" "altgr-intl" 
EndSection

Hope you can help me.

EDIT
When i use "Obkey" and press the "right" alt key it detects like a regular alt, it doesn't make any distinction,

I have a configuration with AltGr, the steps are:

cp /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-keymap.fdi /etc/hal/fdi/policy/
vim /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi
and add this line:
<merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string">altgr-intl</merge>

My file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keymap">
      <append key="info.callouts.add" type="strlist">hal-setup-keymap</append>
    </match>

    <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys">
      <merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">base</merge>

      <!-- If we're using Linux, we use evdev by default (falling back to
           keyboard otherwise). -->
      <merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">keyboard</merge>
      <match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name"
             string="Linux">
        <merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">hpdv5</merge>
      </match>

      <merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">us</merge>
      <merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string">altgr-intl</merge>
      <merge key="input.xkb.options" type="string">terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

GRACIAS!

Revisé ese wiki en cuanto detecté que no servía altgr pero no pude encontrar algo útil, tal vés debido a mi impaciencia.

Soy tan fan de tu blog que te tengo en el blogroll de mi blog.

Gracias.
