After choosing Korean from the right list of layouts, I get something like "XKB error". Probably you don't have Korean keymap in test3 ? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go into System Settings - Keyboard Preferences 2. Choose layouts tab, try to add Korean 3. It will give error Actual Results: "XKB error" Expected Results: "XKB error" Additional info:
This might be bug 121016. Have a look at the workaround in #4.
The work around with deleting a line in Xorg.conf doesn't work - since the line just doesn't exists in a fresh Fedora 2 install (not update of Fedora 1).
the bug is also present in the final version of FC2 when adding Romanian language
the same bug in the FC2 final (i386) when trying to add Lithuanian azerty standart keyboard layout
Just to be sure this is the same bug, here is the content of the message box I see when startig Gnome: ============================ Error activating XKB configuration.
