Not that I can be of much help, but for me it seems, that the keyboard
handling is the culprit, I can copy á and à into an area, but I can't type
it in during the keyboard (I'd have to use keyboard composition). On the
other hand, german special characters öäü, which are on their special keys
work fine.
Don't know if this'll help, though,
