I been very annoyed by this lately and I dont know why I all a sudden started doing this more often but I have wrote out long posts on forums and everything and then done this and lost it all. Anyway there is lots of articles on this out on the net so I figured I would post here for future refference
You have to type:
xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace BackSpace"
after your Window Manager started
And because my AltGr key didn’t worked too i first looked at the keycode with xev which was 113.
Then a little lookup how the key is occupied:
xmodmap -pk
And finally to make the key work again:
xmodmap -e 'keycode 113 = Mode_switch'
put both in your ~/.Xmodmap file:
echo 'keycode 22 = BackSpace BackSpace' >> ~/.Xmodmap
echo 'keycode 113 = Mode_switch' >> ~/.Xmodmap
