Comment 6 for bug 273299

I have:
* USA Dvorak
* USA Dvorak international
* USA International (with dead keys)
* Arabic qwerty/digits

where the second one is default.

Here's gconftool -a /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd:
 layouts = [us dvorak,us dvorak-intl,us intl,ara qwerty_digits]
 model =
 options = [grp grp:alts_toggle,grp grp:shift_caps_toggle,grp grp:sclk_toggle]

(those big spaces are actually tabs within an entry)

I'm going to try resetting to the default configuration.
