and here is my first request for guiding hands: pd-extended 0.42.5 does not take the ~. I can copy the tilde from a text file and paste into objects with middlemouseclick. There is no keyboard dysfunction otherwise on my tp410 with ubuntu 11.4 amd64. Thanks in advance Gerhard

How do you produce it in other apps ?
We use different layouts. I've used 3 or 4 different kinds of CF layouts and several variants of US layouts too. I've also seen FR and DE/AT layouts. I remember that ~ was in a tricky place on the DE/AT Apple layout.

Huh, what's a tp410 ? But I think that what most often matters is the keyboard layout, not the keyboard hardware.

I found threads about these issues on macs/osx too, as far I see there their keyboards show no tilde at all and they produce it with [Alt] - [n]. Here I use a IBM Thinkpad DE/AT layout from ubuntu's options which fits best to the hardware. I tried the standard layout too, the same problem. On my desktop pc with similiar configuration everything works perfectly.

Sorry, it's a Lenovo thinkpad T410
I agree, this seems not to be a hardware problem. Do you think it has to do something with kernel options, codepages etc?
