GNOME in MEPIS


I've just put the GNOME desktop environment on MEPIS 3.3.1, it all works fine but when I first start a GNOME session it says:-
Code:
Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:
- a bug in libxklavier library
- a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities)
- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation

X server version data:
The XFree86 Project, Inc
40300001
You are using XFree 4.3.0.
There are known problems with complex XKB configurations.
Try using simpler configuration or a newer version of the XFree software.
If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of <b>xprop -root | grep XKB</b>
- The result of <b>gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd</b>
(This appears in a notification window)

Hi

In the gnome control centre look for the keyboard option and set the keyboard to your country
That will stop the error message.
