Well, running a su just to change terminals seems like overkill: 1 eddy@bounty ~/usr/src/xkb-data-does-not-show-all-layouts $ LANG=C chvt 7 Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
it breaks when the server can't build an xkb keymap.(**) Option "XkbRules" "xorg" (**) Generic Keyboard: XkbRules: "xorg" (**) Option "XkbModel" "pc104" (**) Generic Keyboard: XkbModel: "pc104" (**) Option "XkbLayout" "ro" (**) Generic Keyboard: XkbLayout: "ro" (**) Option "XkbVariant" "standard" (**) Generic Keyboard: XkbVariant: "standard"and the 'standard' variant of the 'ro' layout doesn't seem to exist. that's probably the problem here. looks like the variant is named 'std' (see /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ro).
Indeed, thanks. I am using std instead and is working now. Still I am not sure if the variant name hasn't changed, since before 1.3-1 ctrl+alt+Fx used to work.
I will check again to be sure that upgrades from Etch to Lenny aren't broken in this regard. If not, then I guess this bug can be closed since it would be obvious my error that caused it.
