keyboard language in X windows


I am getting an error message that says:

Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

this was in the Xfree86 log:

(II) Keyboard "Keyboard0" handled by legacy driver
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Mouse0" (type: MOUSE)
Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap
(II) Server_Terminate keybinding not found

this is my keyboard section of the XF86Config-4 file:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

this is a list of files for what i thought i needed:

bingo2:/mnt/flash/etc/X11/xkb# ls
compat compiled geometry.dir keycodes.dir symbols types
xkbcomp
compat.dir geometry keycodes rules symbols.dir types.dir

does anyone know about this, i cant find jack on the net to tell me what i am doing wrong.
