It's a bug in XFree. please take a look here http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55866 These types of bug reports against X, in particular any xkb related bug reports should be reported directly to XFree86.org at http://bugs.xfree86.org so that the xkb maintainer upstream is aware of it, and can fix it ASAP. The second benefit of reporting them upstream, is that they're fixed or resolved very quickly by the upstream expert (meaning you get a fix faster), and that means that the fix is fixed in the upstream repository so that everyone else benefits too, not just Red Hat users. It also keeps us in sync with upstream, which means there is less maintenance. Please report upstream, and paste a URL to the upstream report here if you'd like me to track and backport the official fix when it is available. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: KXKB hardcode the path point to "symbols" file in "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols", however, the real path should be "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc" or something like that. This result in wrong layout readed when selecting "us" keycode. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.1-13 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open international keyboard layout setting 2.Select the us keyboard layout and try selecting "generic101" 3.Switch to terminal that startx and error about xkb should appear Actual Results: Error about xkb showing at the terminal that startx Expected Results: No error shold appear there Additional info:
