More GNOME xkb weirdness

14.01.2006 21:51

It seems these damn GNOME xkb errors are spreading. Now my home machine has contracted them too after upgrading from GNOME 2.10 to 2.12. And unfortunately the solution I mentioned previously no longer works.

Deleting all dot files in my home directory also doesn't help.

Making /var/lib/xkb world-writable - no effect.

/etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg - check.

Asking for help on IRC in #gnome - no answer, since this problem has already been discussed to death on all sorts of message boards, mailing lists, wikis, bugzillas (earliest posts I could find regarding this were from 2002!). Of course, it could be that the error or my machine is caused by something completely different than in all those other hundred case, but how can I tell? The fscking error message is exactly the same and offers no clues on what caused it.
