Hello, No, not really. You have submitted a duplicate bugreport (I can understand how this happened it is not easy to know wich package a bug belongs to.) and I merged nthem. #251263, is about the same issue. > > On Fri, May 28, 2004 at 11:59:57AM +0200, Marius Mikucionis wrote: [...] > > > After dayly upgrade setxkbmap broke: > > > it does not load any keyboard description. > > > I use "setxkbmap us,lt -option grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" to > > > set > > > the keyboard layout - it gives error message.

There is a high probability that this bug is caused by wrong patch in 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 which also brock NumLock and CapsLock. - Can you please verify this? 1) download http://people.debian.org/~ari/unfuck_numlock.diff to /tmp/ 2) Become root. 3) cd / && patch -p0 < /tmp/unfuck_numlock.diff > The worst part is that keys on numeric-pad do not function any more as > numeric-keys even if num-lock is on. This will definitely be fixed by the procedure listed above. See http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2004/05/msg00693.html for details. hth, cu andreas
Bug#251387: xbase-clients: setxkbmap says Error loading new keyboard description after upgrade no matter what arguments
Package: xbase-clients Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 Severity: normal After dayly upgrade setxkbmap broke: it does not load any keyboard description. I use "setxkbmap us,lt -option grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" to set the keyboard layout - it gives error message. Even if I don't specify any arguments it still gives the same error message. The worst part is that keys on numeric-pad do not function any more as numeric-keys even if num-lock is on. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.6-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 Versions of packages xbase-clients depends on: ii cpp 4:3.3.3-3 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an hi libdps1 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 Display PostScript (DPS) client li ii libexpat1 1.95.6-8 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfontconfig12.2.2-2generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-2FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libncurses5 5.4-4 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpng12-01.2.5.0-6 PNG library - runtime ii libsm64.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++51:3.3.3-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libxaw7 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Athena widget set library ii libxcursor1 1.1.3-1X cursor management library ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.2-6FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxi64.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System Input extension li ii libxmu6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxmuu1 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 lightweight X Window System miscel ii libxpm4 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X pixmap library ii libxrandr24.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System Resize, Rotate and ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxt64.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii libxtrap6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System protocol-trapping ii libxtst6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System event recording an ii libxv14.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System video extension li ii xlibmesa-gl [libgl1] 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 Mesa 3D graphics library [XFree86] ii xlibmesa-glu [libglu1]4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 Mesa OpenGL utility library [XFree ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System client libraries m ii xlibs-data4.3.0.dfsg.1-2 X Window System client data ii zlib1g1:1.2.1.1-3compression library - runtime -- no debconf information
