I'm seeing this error message too. This is the requested debug output from my system: % xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xorg", "pc105", "us,el", ",", "grp:alt_shift_toggle" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "pc105", "us", "", "grp:alt_shift_toggle" % gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [us,el] model = overrideSettings = false options = [] One relevant change in Xorg 6.9.0 is that they renamed the greek symbols file from "gr" to "el". Although reverting this in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols.dir and renaming /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/el to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/gr doesn't seem to make a difference. Even worse: % setxkbmap el Error loading new keyboard description % setxkbmap gr Error loading new keyboard description And the weirdest thing is that libxklavier doesn't seem to have any commits in their CVS repository for two years, even though the latest release is not that old.
