Thanks for your help Jerônimo. |

I tried your tip, using all sorts of keyboard layouts (Generic 101 / 104 |
| 17 |
/ 105 key, Logitech Cordless + Cordless Pro), US English, with or |
| 18 |
without international variant/dead characters, but no joy so far. |

The quote and double quote keys still work only with the AltGr key pressed. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
With some of the above combinations the AltGr key completely stopped |
| 23 |
working. I couldn't even get an ¤ sign with AltGr-5, let alone quotes |
| 24 |
or accented characters! |

|
| 26 |
What seems odd is that OpenOffice is the only application affected, |
| 27 |
while all other applications work correctly under KDE. |

So I'm still stuck with this irritating problem... |
