AltGr-<key> not working in my keyboard layout

Hi !
I run SuSe 9.2 (KDE 3.2).
I was installing radeon driver (fglrx - from ATI) and after that (fglrxconfig)
AltGr-<key> stopped working for my layout (Slovenian). When i switch to us layout it still works.
Actualy i didn't exactly use fglrxconfig, i just copied 'device' section from XF86Config-4 to SaX2 generated XF86Config and changed 'screen' section to use it.
I renamed XF86Config-4 of course.
Well, fglrx and DRI don't like each other, so i'm back to radeon driver, but
AltGr still doesn't work, or to be precise, sometimes, when i change
Option "XkbLayout" "xx"
it works in login screen (user field), but not in KDE.
Been Googlin, altavistin, no go.
I can still reinstall everything, but u know, all settings, tweakings, kernel, ... pain :( and i still wouldn't know why ?

Any ideas ?

Additional info

AltGr happily works in character console (Ctl-Alt-F1).

xev says for AltGr-V (should be @):
