[Bug 538474] Re: Error activating XKB configuration

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  Running Lucid in virtualbox-ose on a macbook pro 5,3 host. Keyboard
  model is set to MacBook.MacBook Pro. Tried to make the Option_R/Alt_R
  key function as Alt_R instead of ISO_Level3_Shift in
  System>Preferences>Keyboard>Layouts>Options. It did not take, and the
  following pop-up appeared:
  
  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
  10705000
  
  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
  
  $ 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
   layouts = [us	mac]
   options = [lv3	lv3:ralt_alt]
   model = macbook78
