Another hack for this problem in feisty that works for me. Append the
following lines to the Default file in /etc/gdm/PostSession :

I'm seeing the same problem on a Debian Lenny (testing) system so its
not just Ubuntu.
When running Fluxbox instead of gnome-session it works fine.

I've also encountered this issue. My solution was to capture the xmodmap
-pke output as ${HOME}/.Xmodmap at the login screen (DISPLAY=:0
XAUTHORITY=/var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth sudo xmodmap -pke ${HOME}/.Xmodmap).

I've discovered a work-around which works for my particular environment,
but which may also work for others. I suffered from the same symptoms,
and eventually started booting into KDE to fix it, but it was

vino (vnc) keyboard mapping problem
--
Scrambled Keys in feisty ubuntu desktop
Me too.
It works fine when I switch to standard X server (with automatic logon)
and log in via shared desktop, but when I change gdm's X server to Xvnc
I can log in okay but once gnome starts up it goes wonky again.
When I switch from Xvnc to X I get this message:
The X system keyboard settings
Just to confirm that I can replicate this fault by logging in to a
remote Ubuntu machine (2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC
2007 i686 GNU/Linux) from a Mac running OS X 10.4.9. The keyboard
mapping is fine when logging in to GDM, but scrambles as soon as Gnome
itself is launched.
the scrambled keys also occur independent of any vnc (server)
because it also occurs if you start gnome-session and forward X to a remote
display.
Xnest :1 -geometry 1024x768 ( on remote machine)
export DISPLAY= yourIP:1 ( on remote machine, new term)
ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED]
gnome-session
The fix is to use --extension XFIXES
This works for vnc4server. It does not work for vncserver.
The following will fix the scrambled keys and also give you the gnome desktop
ssh into your remote pc
sudo apt-get install vnc4server(make sure you do not have vncserver added.
If you do then sudo
The temporary fix worked for me to. Hope someone qualified fixes this soon.
Miy kdb was empty in feisty.

This workaround also worked for me. Feisty value was us-101, was blank
on edgy. Created new bogus value (easy since kbd is munged) of c.b and
removed us-101 entry. exited the editor. btw, to bring up the gconf-
editor, navigate thru the places menu to /usr/bin/gconf-editor and
double click it.
Is tightVNC better at determining the correct map? That was suggested as
something to try... Is this a vnc client or server issue? Is it
possible to bring up the control center to correct this. Awaiting an
upstream fix is a bit worrisome
What changed to cause edgy to work and feisty to not.
Hmm. As workarounds go I'd think I'm better off with this one:

And to correct my thoughtlessness, the culprit is gnome-control-center,
not gnome-session.

I have the same problem. I installed Feisty from CD this weekend
keeping the filesystem for /home and my personal files in place. I
installed vncserver today using apt-get and connecting remotely I have
