I found threads about these  issues on macs/osx too, as far I see there 
their keyboards show no tilde at all and they produce it with [Alt] - [n].
Here I use a IBM Thinkpad DE/AT layout from ubuntu's options which fits 
best to the hardware.
I tried the standard layout too, the same problem.
On my desktop pc with similiar configuration everything works perfectly.

Sorry, it's a Lenovo thinkpad T410

I agree, this seems not to be a hardware problem. Do you think it has to 
do something with kernel options, codepages etc?
