These you should get by pressing the ¨ or ` or ' or ~ key (nothing comes up) then afterwards press the n or a or e key. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_key > How in Kubuntu? I haven't tested the above in Kubuntu, but this is at least how it works in Ubuntu and everywhere else as far as I know. I suppose you have chosen the Swiss French keyboard layout already? Maybe there is a setting in the Kubuntu "keyboard layout" preferences to enable "dead keys" or to define what the AltGr key should do.
