Just do the same way I did for the v key, i.e. stripping extraneous symbols (8 set vs 4 expected).
Put all this in a script you'll run each time you start X11.

PS. Crotian keyboard has support for UTF8 and for ISO 8859-2, but oly UTF8 works
Not sure about what the problem is here. Keyboards do not matter character encoding, they just send keycodes.

Sure, I tell you to remove 4 extra entries and you only remove two of them.
Try this instead:
Code:
xmodmap -e "keycode 55 = v V at grave"
xmodmap -e "keycode  24 = q Q backslash Greek_OMEGA"
xmodmap -e "keycode  25 = w W bar Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  26 = e E EuroSign EuroSign"
xmodmap -e "keycode  41 = f F bracketleft ordfeminine"
xmodmap -e "keycode  42 = g G bracketright ENG"
xmodmap -e "keycode  45 = k K lstroke ampersand"
xmodmap -e "keycode  46 = l L lstroke Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  56 = b B braceleft apostrophe"
xmodmap -e "keycode  57 = n N braceright braceright"
xmodmap -e "keycode  58 = m M asciicircum masculine"

Run that as root:
Code:
mkdir /etc/dt/config
cp Xstartup /etc/dt/config
cat >> /etc/dt/config/Xstartup <<%EOF%
xmodmap -e "keycode  55 = v V at grave"
xmodmap -e "keycode  24 = q Q backslash Greek_OMEGA"
xmodmap -e "keycode  25 = w W bar Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  26 = e E EuroSign EuroSign"
xmodmap -e "keycode  41 = f F bracketleft ordfeminine"
xmodmap -e "keycode  42 = g G bracketright ENG"
xmodmap -e "keycode  45 = k K lstroke ampersand"
xmodmap -e "keycode  46 = l L lstroke Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  56 = b B braceleft apostrophe"
xmodmap -e "keycode  57 = n N braceright braceright"
xmodmap -e "keycode  58 = m M asciicircum masculine"
%EOF%

Then the commands will be automatically run at each session.
