Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:2.12.3-2 Followup-For: Bug #363429
gnome-keyboard-properties seems to be broken again. It refuses to load known working configurations. When loading the configuration settings manually with setxkbmap, there's no problem. Typical error dialog: 8<-- cut -->8 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 70000000 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 8<-- cut -->8 Output of xprop and gconftool-2: 8<-- cut -->8 [senta:~] xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xorg", "cherrycymoli", "eu_intl", "", "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "cherrycymoli", "eu_intl,fi", "", "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps" [senta:~] gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [eu_intl,fi nodeadkeys] model = overrideSettings = false options = [] [senta:~] _ 8<-- cut -->8 (Note that both eu_intl and cherrycymoli are self-written -- working -- keyboard definitions not included in X; I believe this to be irrelevant to the error.) Loading the configuration manually: 8<-- cut -->8 [senta:~] setxkbmap -v 10 -model cherrycymoli -layout "eu_intl,fi" -option "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps" Setting verbose level to 10 locale is C Warning! Multiple definitions of keyboard model Using command line, ignoring X server Warning! Multiple definitions of keyboard layout Using command line, ignoring X server Applied rules from xorg: model: cherrycymoli layout: eu_intl,fi options: grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps,grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:caps Trying to build keymap using the following components: keycodes: xfree86+aliases(qwerty) types: complete compat: complete+ledcaps(group_lock)+ledcaps(group_lock) symbols: pc(pc105)+eu_intl+inet(cherrycymoli)+fi:2+group(caps_toggle) geometry: pc(pc104) [senta:~] _ 8<-- cut -->8 (The warnings shown are simply because of the high verbosity level.) Loading the config this way works fine. Hence I assume the program 'gnome-keyboard-properties' -- or its backend -- to be broken.
