Hi guys,
I'm completely new to this site but I need some urgent help, if you were so kind.
I upgraded my xubuntu distribution yesterday from 16.04 to 18.04 and now to 19.10 but the problem still persists. my keyboard worked fine under 16.04, but right after the upgrade, I would have to press the mod4-key all the time to use layer 1&2 which I didn't have to in the original installation back on 16.04. To reach layer 3, I need to hold mod4 and quickly press mod3+ designated key one after another, to get the desired result. Pressing mod3 + key simultaneously won't work. Same if the pause between pressing the keys is too long. Must be within tenths of a second.
Entry in /usr/share/X11/symbols/de (see code below) seems to look fine. Yet, it is misbehaving.
Held appreciated!
