there is no such file on my system:

$ ls /usr/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.xml
ls: /usr/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.xml: No such file or directory

nor there is a xorg.xml

In my Debian system the xfree86.xml is in /etc/X11/xkb/rules/ (I think
the Debian policy mandate this location)

$ ls -l /etc/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.xml
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 2006-05-08 19:11
/etc/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.xml -> xorg.xml

I am not sure what you mean with that but making
/usr/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.xml a symlink to my xorg.xml gets the
module working.

Please consider adding the standard debian location to the module search path.

BTW it would be very helpful to be able to browse the list of
available languages via keyboard. (if I press 'e' the first available
layout that begins with e gets selected)

Thanks for the help, and bye,
