This is the accent key and then the "a", and works in all other apps
(except gnustep apps).

Done, but the problem persist.

The output is:

2012-05-11 18:24:02.586 Ink[12476] keysym=65105, keyCode=34 flags=0
(state=16) 
2012-05-11 18:24:02.702 Ink[12476] keysym=65105, keyCode=34 flags=0
(state=16) 
2012-05-11 18:24:03.623 Ink[12476] keysym=97, keyCode=38 flags=0
(state=16) 
2012-05-11 18:24:03.816 Ink[12476] keysym=97, keyCode=38 flags=0
(state=16)

I will try debug process_key_event() later. Thanks.
