Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.0.5-1
Severity: normal

XKB fails to load the keymap when X is started by xdm.  I don't think
the problem is with X or xkb, since it works as expected when I use
startx.  Also, after I log in via xdm, I can load the keymap
successfully using

setxkbmap -print us | xkbcomp - $DISPLAY

Xorg.n.log shows:


    xkb_keycodes             { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
    xkb_types                { include "complete" };
    xkb_compatibility        { include "complete" };
    xkb_symbols              { include "pc(pc105)+us" };
    xkb_geometry             { include "pc(pc105)" };
(WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

When started via startx, the message is the same except the warning is
missing and the keymap is loaded.
