Public bug reported:
On starting logging in to gnome, I get:
"Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:

Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release: 8.04
I am always using the latest packages. At most I've got a few hours
difference from the repository.
I've managed to get this error by changing my keyboard settings in
gnome. I'm using a Microsoft Natural Elite Keyboard, with UK key layout:
I wanted like a pound currency symbol on my 3 key as a UK layout
keyboard normally has. I switched keyboards using the gnome tool to
choose the Elite keyboard.
