also i can't get them to work. can anyone running linux get the following thing to work?
ctrl+alt+f3 to switch to a new virtual console
run
fbterm so you can see unicode sequences. (if this is a pain to install, you can also just paste the output from hexdump - use Ctrl-D to exit, not Ctrl-C)
run
hexdump -C so your shell doesn't interpret escape sequences
press
right alt (or alt-gr if it's on your keyboard), and simultaneously type 1234 on the numpad

it should print α„‘ (unicode hex). unfortunately mine only prints Ρ— (unicode decimal) :(

oh goddammit i have found the issue
keycode 100 should be set to AltGr

; sudo dumpkeys | rg '= [aA]lt'
keycode  56 = Alt
keycode 100 = Alt
keycode 125 = Alt
keycode 126 = Alt
