Hi again,
Further information, if it helps.
I find the command
> setxkbmap -model jp106 -layout jp
useful to get most of the keys correctly mapped, but I am still missing
the backslash, arrows and a few others (though I have discovered
backslash on the "windows" key). The output of both commands you
suggested below remains the same both before and after applying the
above command.
Presumably I have an usual keyboard layout, but it was working well
under XFree and then Xorg for a long time, without any special tweaks,
AFAICR. Oh, and it works fine under the console (ie. outside of X & gnome).
Any suggestions to get my keyboard working again would be gratefully
received.

Starting up today, I was greeted with a box telling me that my gnome
keyboard settings and my X (xorg.conf) keyboard settings differ, and
asking which I would like to use. I selected X, as that was working
nicely before, however, that choice appears to have been disregarded.
I then try to set up to use jp106 as my default through
gnome-keyboard-properties, which has at least two problems
1) gnome seems to refuse this as default, and I can only achieve the
jp106 layout by starting gnome with a US default layout, and then
switching to jp106
2) once I get to jp106, my backslash/underscore key does not work
correctly, nor are the arrow keys recognized.
Please send us the output of the following commands:
xprop -root | grep XKB
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
Thanks,
