The file /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/us_intl is missing commas in it which prevent the proper setup of my keyboard for using accents. This is under XFree86 version 4.2.0.
According to the header, this file appears to have been last modified by someone at Conectiva in Brazil (http://www.conectiva.com.br). I find it suprising that this file was submitted this way without testing whether the accents work correctly. Especially in Brazil, where this keyboard mode is used everyday. Who's looking at this? My XF86Config has the following lines: XkbRules "xfree86" XkbModel "pc102" XkbLayout "us_intl" XkbVariant "basic" Attached is a version of the corrected us_intl file which works on my PC. If anyone has a better way of doing this I'd love hear it.
