Compose key not registered

[dargad]

I wanted to have the Compose key to make use of it for occasional unusual input (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey).

On my previous keyboard it had a code of 135 (0x87). I have noticed that this keycode is defined as KEY_International1 (a.k.a. _int1).

I have replaced one of the keys (the one at bottom-right on the right unit of Ergodox) in the qwerty-kinesis layout with this one, but after reflashing the ergodox this key does not work at all (i.e. xev does not register any keypress). The build was successful without any complaints.

I would appreciate any assistance with this issue.

@dargad I was able to make it work by setting a key to _int1 and then specifying keycode 211 = Multi_key in my ~/.Xmodmap file (loaded with xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap)
