FWIW, I've observed exactly the same problem on a fresh Lenny installation, except for I couldn't fix the problem.
Additional information: If I make changes in the keyboard applet configuration, the applet starts to work and `xkbset q' starts to report XKB information. But after reboot it stops to work again. So the applet is mostly useless on Lenny. Regards, Milan Zamazal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
