This happened to me after upgrtading ti Intreprid Ibex. A dialog box with no title, but with title bar, and a big stop sign displayed on the left. The text on it says:

Error activating XKB configuration.
It can happen under various circumstances:
- a bug in libxklavier library
- a bug in X server (xkbcomp, xmodmap utilities)
- X server with incompatible libxkbfile implementation

X server version data:
The X.Org Foundation
10502000

If you report this situation as a bug, please include:
- The result of xprop -root | grep XKB
- The result of gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd

The first command gives:
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "", ""

 while the second gives:
 layouts = [us,ro std_comma]
 model =
 options = [grp grp:alts_toggle,grp grp:alt_shift_toggle]

To mention this error did not occured while using Hardy Heron.
