When i was just beginning in linux i set the keyboard to
US-International and i regretted it till i managed to reset it. It can
have the effect of slowing your typing down. Tapping the apostraphe key
(') causes things to wait until you type a key for the accent to appear
above. After 3 seconds if you haven't hit a key for the accent then the
apostraphe finally appears on screen.
It could be that more keyboard configurations appear if you change the
locale in windows first. There may be the configuration you want in a
different locale which causes the [Right Alt] to become [Alt Gr] in an
expected manner.
