Description Arwed v. Merkatz 2004-04-08 09:43:20 UTC 
I just switched from XFree86 to the X.org X server, and now i get a dialog on
startup:
Error activating XKB configuration.
Probably internal X server problem.

X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
60700000

If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb


xprop -root | grep XKB:
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xorg", "pc104", "us", "", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "pc104", "us", "", ""

gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb:
 layouts = [us,de       deadgraveacute]
 model = pc105
 overrideSettings = false
 options = [ctrl        ctrl:nocaps,grp grp:alt_shift_toggle]

Setting the keymap with setxkbmap works, so XKB itself is working.
