Well, its not related to usability and it works on 2.16 here. So I
suspect there is problem somewhere in your setup. Probably Right Alt is
binded to level with xkb options.

What does "setxkbmap -print" output in your environment?



The output is


xkb_keymap {
       xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"       };
       xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
       xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
       xkb_symbols   { include
"pc(pc105)+us(intl)+us:2+level3(rwin_switch)"  };
       xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};


About the right alt being "bound to level", whatever that means, in Keyboard
preferences -> layout options, I have only one checkbox active: third level
choosers -> Press Right Win-key to choose third level. Anything else is
unchecked.

Any idea? Thanks again

Maurizio
