As another Swedish ibook user I found out by accident that you get AltGr functionality by pressing Fn (lower left corner) and Alt. A more comfortable solution in the long run is to remap alt-gr to the enter key I followed the instructions over at http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/support/solutions/ydl_general/keyboard_swedish.shtml Good luck! > Also, the ATI Radeon Mobile 7500 is not well configured. > There are spurious stripes running all over the screen > and I imagine that it might come from a too old radeon > driver.
