Hi John,
I'm working from home today so I've ask the phd student to launch a PXE
boot for a new full kikstart install with a PC keyboard and then try to
configure the apple keyboard by hand. See the answers to your questions
below.

The PC is re-installed with a standard keyboard this morning and I have
now:
> /etc/sysconfig/keyboard
KEYTABLE="fr-latin9"
MODEL="pc105"
LAYOUT="fr"
KEYBOARDTYPE="pc"
VARIANT="latin9"
> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Doesn't exist
> /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*
Empty directory

It was the idea this morning: restart with a fresh install and a
standard pc keyboard and switch to the apple one after. But when
selecting the apple keyboard in system-setup-keyboard menu I get:
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:
CentOS
11300000
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
So it is possible to work on the PC with the standard french PC keyboard
but still not possible to use the apple keyboard.
Patrick
