Right. > But I remember having had connected the Powerbook to an x86 machine, via > nfs and a router, for file sharing purposes ... some months ago ... I am currently trying to guess your settings in order to reproduce your problem. If your initial settings in XF86Config-4 were causing trouble, these error messages would be logged into /var/log/XFree86.0.log Since they are stored in /var/log/gdm/:0.log this means that: a. An application modified your settings b. You are certainly using GNOME ;) Can you please send the output of the three following commands? xkbcomp -o - :0 | grep xkb_symbols xprop -root | grep XKB gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb Denis
