xorg 1:7.5+6ubuntu3, Ubuntu Maverick

When changing keyboard layout from "Apple Laptop" to "MacBook/MacBook
Pro", this error appeared: "Error activating XKB configuration ... X
server version data: The X.org Foundation 10900000..."

The error alert asks for "The result of xprop-root | grep XKB". The
result is "xprop-root: command not found". (apt-get has never heard of
xprop-root, either.)

The error alert also asks for "The result of gconftool-2 -R
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd".

11:29:15@~> gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [us	mac,us,af]
 options = [grp	grp:alts_toggle,compose	compose:ralt,Compose key	compose:ralt,caps	caps:backspace]
 model = macbook78
