Hi all,

I have the following problem and will appreciate if someone has an answer.

My Linux X server handles the dead keys correctly that is 
        'e leads to é
        `e leads to è
        "e leads to ë
and     ' key (apostrophe) typed two times leads to '
        " key (double quote) typed two times leads to "

xterm and standard applications handle this correctly. What I'm typing now on
Netscape is done this way.

But presently the problem occurs with lyx editor:
generation of accented characters is ok
        'e leads to é
        `e leads to è
        "e leads to ë
but generation of standard apostrophe, double quote, caret (^), tilde and back
quote are impossible. Lyx refuses I get the accent that would be upon a
character. Generated LateX is 
        \i \'{ }  instead of '

I have put no key map translation in config file. 

I believe it is a known problem. 

Thanks in advance for your help

Cheers

Jacques
