Bug Description
Upon login to gdm after upgrading from 6.10 to 7.04 the keyboard is messed up.
Also it complains that there is a mismatch between X settings and gnome.
Gnome settings was set to US keyboard. Changed it to Norwegian, and xorg.conf is also set to use no layout.
typing "qwerty" gives "c.gvn " This only happens in X and by using VNC to the machine.
Ssh into the machine works fine.
my keyboard setup in xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "no"
EndSection
I don't know if this is relevant, but this happend when I killed X, so that it would restart

It's not only the "qwerty" letters that are messed up. It's the whole keyboard layout. Nothing is where it supposed to be.
Gnome desktop is useless without a working keyboard
