Error activating XKB configuration. It can happen under various circumstances: - a bug in libxklavier library - a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities) - X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation X server version data: The X.Org Foundation 10503000 If you report this situation as a bug, please include: - The result of xprop -root | grep XKB [~]$ xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "us", "nodeadkeys", "" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "de", "nodeadkeys", "" - The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd [~]$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [] model = options = []
What happens if you try: setxkbmap -rules evdev -model pc105 -layout de -variant nodeadkeys -option '' -print (and the same without -print option).
[]$ setxkbmap -rules evdev -model pc105 -layout de -variant nodeadkeys -option '' -print xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwertz)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete" }; xkb_symbols { include "pc+de(nodeadkeys)+inet(evdev)" }; xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" }; }; Without the -print option i get no output bugzilla-daemon@freedesktop.org schrieb: > http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20580 > > > Sergey V.

Actually it seems rather GNOME than fd.o bug, but since I am sitting at both chairs... Would you try running gnome-settings-daemon in the terminal (first you'll have to kill is many times, otherwise it respawns) setting "export XKL_DEBUG=150"?
