Package: xkb-data Version: 1.8-1 Severity: important After updating my desktop machine to squeeze my keyboard no longer works (ok 3 keys on my keyboard among them "u" work). This happens even if I start with an empty/no xorg.conf.
Starting X manually I noticed this on stderr: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: > Error: Can't find file "en_us" for symbols include > Exiting > Abandoning symbols file "default" Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server (EE) Unable to open evdev device "/dev/input/event4". (EE) PreInit returned NULL for "Microsoft Natural® Ergonomic Keyboard 4000" So I did a strace and creating this symlink fixed it for me # cd /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols # ln -s us en_us Is this a problem/misconfiguration on my side and intended or should en_us be shipped indeed? -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35.4 (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
