I added these lines to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi to enable my AltGr key a long time ago:
<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">compose:ralt</merge>
...but I noticed recently that my alt key doesn't register as an AltGr key anymore. I tested in xev to make sure. Does anybody have any idea what might be going on here?

That happened to me with the new Xorg update.
Apparently Xorg ignores 10-keymap.fdi, so I have to set "setxkbmap -layout us -variant altgr-intl" in my .xinitrc

Xorg-server, as of version 1.8, no longer uses or cares about HAL so all HAL-related configuration is ignored. If there are important fdi files you have, you need to port them to udev rules.

Thanks, thanks! I thought it was probably due to a package update some time ago, but I only noticed this recently.
