The xev output for both left alt and right alt is given below. I could not use right alt for any purpose due to this. What could be the problem? Thanks in advance.

In keyboard settings, you can look at a preview of the layout you have configured. It's in the menu on the right of each keyboard entry in the list.

By default there was no layout enabled in that option but can add new ones. Anyway thanks for the tips

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
