Strange keyboardlayout-error.

Hello,

I live in Belgium and i use the Belgian keyboardlayout (deuh) with the nodeadkeys-option.
There no problems when I work with/in (?) the command line,
but when I start X the layout doesn't work anymore, which is quite strange, because my xorg.conf is good;

....
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Keyboard0"
    Driver         "keyboard"
    Option         "CoreKeyboard"
    Option         "XkbRules" "xorg"
    Option         "XkbModel" "pc104"
    Option         "XkbLayout" "azerty"
    Option         "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
...

When I look into the GNOME-settings (i'm using gnome with openbox) everything looks fine - again - but when i want to change something i'll get this error.

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
10400090

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

This is the result of xprop -root | grep XKB

[filenox@netsky ~]$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xorg", "pc104", "azerty", "nodeadkeys", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "pc104", "azerty", "nodeadkeys", ""

And this is the result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd

[filenox@netsky ~]$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [azerty    nodeadkeys,be    nodeadkeys,be    nodeadkeys]
 model = pc104
 options = [grp    grp:alts_toggle,altwin    altwin:menu]
 overrideSettings = true

I really hope that somebody can help me because it's quite annoying, i can't typ the "at" etc.

Re: Strange keyboardlayout-error.

Problem solved by replacing "azerty" to "be" in the xorg.conf file smile
