fritsch@todesstern:~$ cat xklala
xprop -root | grep XKB
fritsch@todesstern:~$ xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "base", "pc101", "us", "", ""
fritsch@todesstern:~$ setxkbmap de
Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property
Use defaults: rules - 'xorg' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us'
Couldn't find rules file (xorg)
