FC6test2: Swiss-German keyboard with Sun dead keys not working

Dear all,

I have freshly installed FC6 test 2 in the English language. Because I 
use a Swiss German keyboard I set the keyboard layout during 
installation to sg(latin1).

After the installation I tried to change via desktop-preferences-keyboard to

Switzerland German, Sun dead keys

but somehow the dead keys are not working.

I see in xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier "Keyboard0"
	Driver "kbd"
	Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
	Option "XkbLayout" "ch"
	Option "XkbVariant" "de_nodeadkeys"

The last working SG keyboard support with dead keys was with FC4.

Kind regards,
....Lutz Behringer
