Re: Keyboard problem
Hey German, I investigated a similar problem a while ago. My test case was setting the keyboard layout in gnome on Ubuntu 12.04 to French, using the Ubuntu gui for changing keyboard layouts. This was on a physically US English keyboard, and I was getting similar output in Ink when pressing a key that should have produced an accented e or a. I traced the problem to Source/x11/XIMInputServer.m, in particular, it does some things with setting the C locale which didn't make sense to me based on reading the documentation of the relevant XIM functions. In my case, the existing XIMInputServer code was not calling Xutf8LookupString when it should have. Here is a patch that cleans up XIMInputServer a bit. Assuming this fixes it for you - before the patch can be committed there also needs to be a configure check for the Xutf8LookupString function (HAVE_XUTF8LOOKUPSTRING) added - IIRC it is a relatively recent addition to Xorg.
