$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "macintosh", "de", "nodeadkeys", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "acpi", "de", "nodeadkeys", ""

$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb      
 layouts = [de  nodeadkeys]
 model = acpi
 overrideSettings = false
 options = []
