Description anonymus 2009-03-10 09:49:01 UTC
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).
Comment 2 anonymus 2009-03-14 04:01:46 UTC
[]$ 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

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"?

Bug has been open for 5 years without getting attention. Sorry about that, I think it's better to just close it now. Please file a new bug if this is still an issue.
