Bug Description

After update to Intrepid Keyboard Layouts not working.

Trying to set XKB with keyboards preferences.

Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:
- a bug in libxklavier library
- a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities)
- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation

X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
10502000

If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd

xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "nodeadkeys", "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "nodeadkeys", "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [us nodeadkeys,ru]
 model =
 options = []

part of xorg.conf:

I can enable keyboard by using KDE System Settings ->Regional settings -> Keyboard Layout -> change something press apply, then change back and press apply.

Layouts working but only until restart of x-server.

Same situation with "setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us,ru -variant ,winkeys" from console.

Hi vodarus,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.

Changed in xkeyboard-config:
