Here you go MIKE! :) The results of xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "us", "", "" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "us", "", "" gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb layouts = [us] model = pc105 overrideSettings = true options = []
Same thing here, but with a german keyboard layout: xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "nodeadkeys", "" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc105", "de", "nodeadkeys", "" gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb layouts = [de nodeadkeys] model = pc105 overrideSettings = false options = []
[root@localhost root]# xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc104", "us", "", "" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc104", "us", "", "" [root@localhost root]# gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb layouts = [us] model = pc105 overrideSettings = false options = []
Under further investigation I think the bug was caused by gnome-applets-2.6.0-2 --------------------- * Wed Apr 14 2004 Alex Larsson <alexl redhat com> 1:2.6.0-2 - Add gswitchit.schemas to SCHEMAS The problem I think occurs when gnome tries to lunch individual user keyboard settings. It runs gswitchit to switch over the keyboard settings and it pukes on the Schema. Where I'm trying to find out. I have a feeling it somewhere in capplets because if you run gswitchit-applets-capplets no plugins are listed and none are available. (I don't know if that is normal behavior, I've yet to hit the code) I'll investiage further later, for now I have an english paper to write. Note this bug can also be viewed by running the gnome control panel and adding additional layouts under keyboard
This is a dupe of #121016
Correct. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 121016 ***
Bug #121016 is related to Xkb rules file rename, but it is a different bug, in which setxkbmap fails due to the X server config file hard coding: Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" in it. When that line is removed from the config file and the X server restarted, setxkbmap works correctly again. In other words, that is just a misconfiguration issue, one which is addressed in our most recent pyxf86config and other updates. Reopening this bug as it is not a duplicate of 121016, but rather a dupe of 120858.
