How to type umlaut and international characters on US keyboard, SUSE 10.0

I have a SUSE 10.0 question.  How can I type ü, ö and other
international/special/non-keyboard/deadkey characters?  I am finding no
documentation on this subject.

I run Gnome, and have selected in YAST:
   Generic 104-Key PC
   US English
   intl variant

I find that the international variant breaks the ´ (single quote) key
and the ~ (twiddle).  Is there a way to get the ability to accent
characters, or type arbitrary symbols, without loosing keys on the keyboard?

I am used to the process of pressing a deadkey initiator, a combining
character, then a character.

                        -Bryce
