after I manually correct all settings in gconf, "apply systemwide" button in g-k-p works fine: it asks for authorization and writes parameters from "layouts", "model" and "options" keys to console-setup.
summarizing problems: 1. g-s-d writes garbage to gconf (tab symbols, duplicated words > broken syntax) (karmic & lucid) 2. g-s-d does not read setting from console-setup when corresponding gconf keys is empty (lucid) 3. g-s-d haphazardly writes things to "layouts" key when it is empty, ignoring console-setup.
