Description of problem:
error message at first x launch, using rawhide 20090326

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Actual results:
Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:

- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation

X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
10600000

[dennis@mobile ~]$ xprop -root|grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "us", "nodeadkeys", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "de", "", ""

[dennis@mobile ~]$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
