No "@", "$", "[ ]" etc. with Norwegian Dvorak?

Hi all, this is my first post here.

I'm having a bit of a problem with my keyboard. The thing is that I'm a Dane using the Dvorak layout, and have therefore selected the Norwegian Dvorak variant (to get our strange æøå characters).

But alas! I can't find the characters "@", "$" and "[ ]" anywhere! When I need them, I have to find them in existing text and copy them -- and that gets boring real fast!
The characters are supposed to be located on "AltGr"+some of the number keys (for instance two for the at-sign, or four for the dollar sign), but all they do is just print the numbers (that is, ignoring the "AltGr" modifier key.
The console does the same thing (so it may not be KDE per se, but rather an underlying system). Konsole (in KDE) is doing something completely different, something with variables I think, I don't know the feature.

Right now I'm running DesktopBSD (i.e. FreeBSD v6.2) with KDE v3.5.6, but I've seen the same behaviour in every other OS/Distro.

What am I doing, not doing, or doing wrong? Help!
