I'm experiencing this problem with my Apple keyboard on a PC as well.  I
get the following error in a dialog when trying to set the keyboard
model to the Apple Aluminum keyboard:

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
11001000

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 output of the requested commands:

xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "mac", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "mac", ""


 gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 options = [ctrl	ctrl:nocaps,compat	shift:both_capslock_cancel,compat	numpad:mac,altwin	altwin:ctrl_win,capscaps:none]
 model = applealu_ansi
 layouts = []
