Ok, but that's rather a workaround then a solution. I somehow like WYSIWYG keyboards. Emacs is so old, there should be a way to solve that problem. Or isn't it a problem of emacs? I found that on http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2004-10/msg00150.html If Emacs (nearly all version from last years) is compiled with xorg-x11 and it is used with European keyboard with AltGr key, pressing AltGr beeps and breaks i-searches. Bug is not in Emacs, but in X: http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1625 But Emacs can include simple work-around: --- src/xterm.h 2004-07-03 16:06:51.000000000 +0200 +++ src/xterm.h 2004-10-13 21:33:35.281822816 +0200 @@ -21,8 +21,8 @@ #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <X11/cursorfont.h> -#include <X11/Xutil.h> #include <X11/keysym.h> +#include <X11/Xutil.h> #include <X11/Xatom.h> #include <X11/Xresource.h> What does it mean? Somehow change src/xterm.h, I guess.
