Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfce4-xkb-plugin

I have installed Xubuntu with Norwegian keyboard layout (no) and later added US and CZ (qwerty) layouts using the "Keyboard Layouts" toolbar item.
If I add them in this order, the AltGr key stops work both for the Norwegian and Czech layouts (which is a problem, as it is needed for @, [], {}, ~, ...).
If I, however, add the Czech layout before the US one (so the order is no, cz, us), the AltGr key work as expected..

This has been tested on two HP laptops, one with 32-bit and one with 64-bit Xubuntu 9.04, both with and without an external keyboard..
