Hello Everybody,

Since I have updated to gnome2-2.12.2 (I think from 2.12.0) I keep
getting the following error message on gnome startup. None of the fixes
(mostly for gnome 2.6/2.8) that I came across would help.

Thanks,
Michael

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

The X.Org Foundation
60802000

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
