Comment 1 Andreas Pokorny 2003-02-05 18:43:43 UTC 
This bug seems to be the same as this one:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15183

I will try "pc105" when i come home next week.
On german keyboards the '<' '>'and '|' characters are on a single key next to the 'y' key (QWERTZ), so it seems to be the same key.
