that's just the command e executes to set the keymap. what you configure it to
be is simply passed to that command to go implement. i was guessing that maybe
somehow this comd was not there on the 5th. now i don't know. you could strace
e (killall -USR1 enlightenment_start; strace -f -o log -s 5000 -p `pidof
enlightenment`) then restart e (ctrl+alt+end) then ctrl+c strace after the
restart, and "grep exec log" and find the setxkbmap line - run it by hand from
a terminal. is there a problem? does it work now? compare this on your multiple
systems (strace them all, check its the same line - it should be). does the
exec even work (not return a vale < 0) ?
