Keyboard problems - no "dead keys" - in Linux version of Mathematica

Hello,

I use Mathematica 5.0 in Linux. 
But I have a problem:

 I can't use accent characters like 'à', 'á', 'é'. Normally I insert them using '´' and 'a' (the ´ can be seen as a "dead key"). But in Mathematica when I type this sequence I get only "´a". 
 In other programs (Firefox, OpenOffice, etc...) the keyboard works right, therefore it is not a X server configuration problem.

 Any hints? 

Thanks!
