Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.5+6
Severity: normal

Hello,

I tried this on a live CD but I would expect this has implications for
normal systems as well.

The issue is:

I have /etc/default/keyboard set up with my preferred keymap which I
heard is the way to set up system-wide keyboard layout in X.

I have a live-CD with X preinstalled and on that CD the keyboard works
fine.

On another CD the X server is not installed so I install it with

aptitude install xserver-xorg icewm nodm

Running nodm as root then gives me a X session where the keyboard is
*not* set up.

Looking through X logs I see that on the system with preinstalled X the
layout is logged Xorg.log as the one in /etc/default/keyboard, on the CD
where I install the X server after boot the layout is logged and works
as just "us".

keyboard-configuration is installed in either case.
