Fedora Core2 XKB error

sevvy8 · 07-19-2004, 06:20 PM

Hi gang , I seem to have a error when booting up Fedora 2.
It seems o.k. except that the following error message appears.

Error activating XKB configuration.
Probably internal X server problem.

What is this? And is it possible to fix this problem?

Apart from this my Laptop boots-up fine....

cheers - Sevvy8

Here's your answer

Oh, this one's easy!

1. Open a Terminal, and become root:

su -
2. Open up your X.org configuration file in a text editor:

gedit /etc/X11/XF86Config

(If that doesn't work, try /etc/X11/xorg.conf instead.)
3. Change the line that says:

Option "Xkbrules" "xfree86"

to:

Option "Xkbrules" "xorg"

Now you won't get the error anymore!
