I have this in my xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
#Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
#Option "XkbOptions" "compose:ralt"
Option "XkbOptions" "compose:menu"
#Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch,compose:menu"
EndSection
but now I am having problems with actually typing the £ I try {menu} p and
nothing
