I will chime in here as well. I have just upgraded an eeepc 901 from 8.04 to 9.04, and I can not get the Swiss German keyboard to work in a normal sense.
Under 8.04 I used the attached layout file, with appr Ftopriate changes to base.xml. For some reason this doesn't work under 9.04 (even though I can get the layout to show up in the keyboard preferences.
Conversely, just running setxkbmap eeepc_de does put in the proper keymap and all is good. Perhaps this variation could be added to the keymaps for the next release of Ubuntu ?
