I will check this out but I now have several other issues, not sure of
the relation. I´ve lost umlauts though I get accented vowels such as
á.
so far playing with dpkg -reconfigure keyboard-configuration and dpkg
--reconfigure console-setup doesn´t help, nor anything in ´Regional
and Accessibility´.
I thought I had those values set to the state they have always been in
but I can´t get umlauts and get right shift as compose key. (I´m happy
to have some other key set as compose key.)
I am using an American keyboard set to ´Generic 105-key PC (intl)´.
Layout is ´English (US) us, intl, thus:
setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us -variant intl
Compose key is now set to ´Menu´ but it´s ignored; right Alt generates
ß and the á, ó letters.
before whatever it is that happened I could effortlessly generate
Umlauts (right shift + double-quote + vowel).
I probably have set something wrong, some configuration issue, but no
luck or insight yet.
it´s an ASUS laptop, pretty old: UX330U.
I kinda need Umlauts.
I´ll check if something got locked at hardware level, googling on bing
as you say.

Greetings!
I may have fumbled and hit two keys or something but now I don´t have
a regular apostrophe (I get ´ instead) or regular double quotes (I get
¨ instead).
I´m on TDE on Q4OS Buster. I´m sure someone has a quick fix at
hand....
Check your alt switch(s) or function lock buttons... You might have
to "Google it on Bing" your keyboard if it's a hidden switch though...
