Hi guys

I have the following error appearing after login/final startup.

Probably internal X server problem.

X server version data:
The XFree86 Project, Inc

You are using XFree 4.3.0.
There are known problems with complete XKB configurations.
Try using simpler configuration or taking more fresh version of XFree software.
If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb

the results

xprop -root | grep XKB

i dont know if this helps or not but my keyboard (general keyboard for us) is set as pc104. i havent gone through that set up in a while so i dont remember what differs between pc104 and 105. but my moto is what the hell!! try it see if it helps you can always restore it back to 105 if it dont help.
