on my powerbook g4 with a swiss keyboard, both alt keys produce the same

I would like to use the right alt key as the right mouse button. Does
somebody know the correct keycode?

because the evolution package in debian-powerpc unstable is out of date,
I tried to build the source packages myself (I built gtkhtml, bonobo,
