Re: anyone got a fix?
I'd been getting this error for quite some time, on both the the 1.3.1
and 2.0 releases. The only unusual point on my setup is that I was
using one of the "additional" X-servers from S.u.S.E. (because I needed
support for the Permedia 2 chipset), and had created my XF86Config file
via their patched version of xf86config. It had set up the keyboard
section as follows:
-----
Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
AutoRepeat 500 5
XkbKeymap "xfree86(us_microsoft)"
EndSection
-----
What I ended up needing to do, was to rewrite it as:
-----
Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "microsoft"
XkbLayout "us"
AutoRepeat 500 5
EndSection
-----
Seems to have done the trick. Good luck!
