I can reproduce this bug on Fedora 14, could it please be reopened? Selecting either the "MacBook/MacBook Pro" keyboard model or the "MacBook/MacBook Pro (Intl)" model pops up a dialog box with the following error message:

---
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:
Fedora Project
10901000

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
---

$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us", "intl", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "evdev", "us", "intl", ""
$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [us mac,us intl]
 options = [grp grp:shift_caps_toggle]
 model = macbook79

In addition, any changes I make to the keyboard _layout_ (not the model) are reverted when I log out and log back in. I'm running Fedora 14 on VirtualBox 3.2.12 r68302 on a MacBook (model MacBook2,1).
