[Bug 438053] [NEW] MacBook keyboard incorrect mapping [Jaunty]

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

MacBook 5,1 changing to the correct keyboard mapping (ie Apple, Macbook International) generates the following error on UK 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
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
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results are:

_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "gb", "mac", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "gb", "mac", ""
mark@mark-laptop:~$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = []
 options = []
 model = macbook79
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keyboard is still not correctly mapped - ie £ key cannot generate hash when alt 3 is typed
