I just upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 on another system, a gBox P4 computer.

I reproduced this bug on this system. $ apt-show-versions gnome-terminal gnome-terminal/oneiric uptodate 3.0.1-0ubuntu3 I am about to upgrade this system to 12.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980134 Title: AltGr key doesn't work properly in gnome-terminal when Maori is in the keyboard selection list. Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am running the 12.04 beta, 2012-04-12 daily, i386, from a DVD. I have 3 different keyboard layouts loaded in the keyboard layout selector: US, ES (LATAM), and Maori. With ES selected, and the AltGr key depressed, my top QWERTY row should look like this @ł€¶ŧ←↓→øþ But if I do this in the gnome-terminal, I get ������������� If I then remove Maori from the list, and continue with the ES (LATAM) layout, I get the proper characters on the screen. See bug #929054 for an earlier report on the xfce4-terminal in Xubuntu 12.04 beta, on the same amd64 machine. This does not happen with the KDE terminal program in Kubuntu 12.04 beta. Also it does not happen in Debian 6 with a similar combination of keyboard layouts, including Maori. Debian has a somewhat different selection of layouts available, but it does have the ones I tested on this machine. Also it has a somewhat older version of gnome-terminal. I filed this separate bug report to emphasise that this happens with gnome-terminal, and still happens as of today's build, with no problems arising from multiple updates to the installation on this computer.
