[ROOT] Problems with german keyboard layout in TGTextEntry Widgets

I can't enter characters like \, @ or ^ with german Keyboard Layout under
XFree 4.1 (root 3.03/06). I can enter these characters with cut and
paste, or when I use a keyboard with US-Layout. The problem does not occur
with TGTextEdit Widgets and any other widget sets (e.g. no problem if
I use the xclass widgets directly). Here is a part of My XF86Config-4:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "keyboard"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "de"
        Option          "XkbVariant"    "nodeadkeys"
EndSection

no problem if I change the XkbLayout to "us". Has anybody already solved
this problem?
