I solved the problem with the advice of Ivan Pascal (many thanks for that). The problem was that the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB was absent - why ever! I've installed X from the FreeBSD ports. But, being the lucky one, another machine running FreeBSD and X which was upgraded from 4.2 to 4.3 of X posses this file and I just made a copy of it and put it to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11.
And, taataataa, X works as expected.
Hope, that helps you, too!

Howdy,
I'm new to this list and have not yet recieved my subscription confirmation... it's been 40 mins or so now... Hopefully things will catch up with me, preferably sooner than later...
I have read the discussion regarding this problem and am experiencing the same problem. My keyboard with x11 up is 99%+ non functional. I get the same messages in the startx.log file about "expected keysym, got XF86_Switch_VT_1: line 8 of xfree86" as in the earlier emails. This is the out of the box xfree86-4.3.0 (just downloaded). I have build logs of both make World and install as well as the /var/adm/XFree86.0.log if anyone is willing to look at them and/or help me. At this point in time my gui is completely non functiona.
Any/all help/tips/hints/suggestions/prayers would be greatly appreciated.
Regards and thanks for your help and time,
George...
