           Summary: Alt Graph doesnot generate any key event when pressing
                    in French locale
           Product: IcedTea
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: IcedTea
        AssignedTo: unassigned at icedtea.classpath.org
        ReportedBy: mercier.eric at gmail.com


FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0_0"
IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-Fedora-10) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Linux 2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64
(Fedora 10 preview)


In Java applications, "Alt Gr" and therefore third level keys don't work.
Ctrl+Alt+<key> doesn't work either.
This means I cannot write e.g. "\", "{", "}", "[", "]", "~" ...
All in all, I get this problem since I updated ubuntu from 7.10 to 8.04 and
with this from java 6 update 3 to update 6.
I do not have any troubles with "alt gr"  on Windows operating systems as well.

Keyboard is French.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

-Launch: java -jar
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar

-Try to write e.g. "\" by pressing <alt gr>+? -- this should not work ...


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
