I had that on an install created from a Fedora 11 beta live CD. In the end I got rid of it by renaming .gconf and letting it create a fresh .gconf (as it was a test install I didn't care what other settings I lost).
It's probably a Very Dumb Question, but which gconf? Where?
I get the same thing, see below for the record. Did you solve it by removing your $HOME/.gconf directory?
Right after logging in my GNOME session, I get this:
****************************************************** 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 10603000
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 ******************************************************
Here is the requested information:
$ xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "us", "intl", "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "us", "", ""
$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [us-acentos,us intl] options = [grp grp:shift_caps_toggle,terminate terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp] model = latitude
I notice that dead keys don't work anymore, whatever using the "us-acentos" layout imported from the upgrade to F11 (strange, it is the first time I see such layout name in X11, us-acentos is the name in TTY) or a new layout "USA international (with dead keys)" set up using GNOME keyboard prefs.
The us-acentos layout works fine in TTY, my xorg.conf is set up for a US intl keyboard:
Section "InputDevice" # keyboard added by rhpxl Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbVariant" "intl" EndSection
This is a Fedora 11 (just upgraded by yum from Fedora 10), running on a Dell Latitude E6500. The same hardware/config was running fine in Fedora 10.
