Are doing this via an english keyboard? And, is it possible to assign a 
different key instead of Alt_R, say... win key?

One more thing, as I noticed you share my native language, ;-) I use to type 
certain letters and symbols by a Ctrl+Alt combination, such as @ or €, but on 
linux I can only access these by means of a Alt_R.

Is there a way to obtain this. I've googled, but to no avail.

TIA.
