I first changed the grp setting manually using gconf-editor, but the same error dialogue keeps on appearing. I have also tried deleting all gconf keys for the keyboard preferences, then re-selecting the keyboard maps from GNOME's keyboard capplet, which brings up the same error. However, I vaguely recalled having had a similar problem, way back when gswitchit (which later became GNOME's keyboard preference dialogue) had appeared. Here is part of an exchange between Sergey Udaltsov and I: > XFree86.log reported something about not being able to load the XKB map. > Pasting that exact log line in Google gave me the following explanation: > > Bugged keyboard alias file in xlibs-data (usually after an xlibs upgrade). > > How I solved it: > > dpkg -P --force-depends xbase-clients xlibs xlibs-data > rm -r /etc/X11/xkb > apt-get install xbase-clients xlibs xlibs-data > > Now everything works as before and, actually, even better: Gswitchit > (a.k.a. GNOME Keyboard Preferences capplet) finally works! :-) It should be noted that purging the above packages left plenty of cruft in /etc/X11/xkb which, I suspect, affects newer keyboard maps adversely. Anyhow, even after purging the packages and force-removing /etc/X11/xkb, then re-installing the packages, adding secondary keymaps via GNOME's keyboard preferences again made the error message appear. I therefore welcome further suggestions on how to resolve this. -- Martin-Éric Racine http://q-funk.iki.fi
