Hi

I've gentoo and I recently updated to xorg-6.8.0-r5. I didn't change anything in
my xorg.conf, and it X starts perfectly, but I cannot use keys like altgr+q.
Instead of '@' I get a simple 'q'. Furthermore I cannot use "Ctrl+Alt+F1" for
example.

Another question: Isn't there a compact handbook for x.org? Any question you ask
in a mailinglist or elsewhere: Everybody has his own opinion about which flags
to use. Some say use this option, others say that that option was xfree and
isn't available in x.org anymore. Big confusion.

i really hope your configuration hasn't been broken for a year ...
usually this is caused by a broken configuration, that stops working on upgrade
