New submission from Michael Prokop <mika at grml.org>:

In /etc/skel/.xinitrc.d/grml_keyboard we have xmodmap $FILE and *then* a call 
to setxkbmap. This overrides special keys like AltGr+o giving "ö" usually. We 
either have to set the setxkbmap command before the xmodmap call or otherwise 
setup setxkbmap/xmodmap accordingly and the save output of "xmodma -pke" to the 
according files.

JFTR: Needs to be checked on real/physical hardware to avoid any possible 
regressions within KVM/Virtualbox/....
