compose key stopped working

i set in my .Xmodmap keycode 134 = Multi_key to make my Super_R the compose key, but its not working...

it worked yesterday and the day before etc, but it just stopped working today. restarting my computer didnt do anything, and it also didnt work in other DEs.

xev's output when i press on Super_R says i pressed Multi_key, but it doesnt work... i also tried to set other keys to Multi_key to see if maybe its Super_R thats broken, but that didnt work either. i also tried other keyboards, but same problem

i know its not xmodmap thats broken cuz all of my other remaps are still working.

xdotool key Multi_key or xdotool key 0xff20 also dont work, but i dont get an error. it just goes to the next line without saying anything, but it doesnt actually start a compose sequence

my .XCompose has include "%L" on top, so its not that either.


How do i troubleshoot the compose key?
