Hi,
I`using gnome, but, the keymap is wrong (not in the CLI).
I tried to start gnome-keyboard-properties, but I receive the following errors:
when starting gnome-keyboard-properties as user:
Code:
ale@GeNToO ~ $ gnome-keyboard-properties

** (bug-buddy:631): WARNING **: Impossibile caricare l'icona per Apri cartella

** (bug-buddy:631): WARNING **: Impossibile caricare l'icona per Browser dei componenti Bonobo

"Impossibile caricare l`icona per" mean "Unable to open icon for"
when launching gnome-keyboard-properties as root:
Code:
GeNToO ale # gnome-keyboard-properties

(gnome-keyboard-properties:646): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.


Well, I need gnome using an appropriate keymap!
I would like to know how to fix this problem (there should be a configuration file but I don`t remember which one is it) and how to make gnome-keyboard-properties working!

Thanks in advance!

P.S.
I`ve yet tried to update x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard and x11-misc/xkeyboard-config (also by unmasking the latest version) but it didn`t work!

Code:

Well. since I'm using Xorg 7.2, it can start without an xorg.conf.
I created xorg.conf by following the procedure, edited etc. and now by using:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
        Option "XkbRules"   "xorg"
        Option "XkbModel"   "pc102"
        Option "XkbLayout"  "it"
EndSection
the keyboard is correctly working.
On the other hand, gnome-keyboard-properties is not yet working :(

See you.

Well,

I found out this is a bug related to my locale.
The bug and relative workaround can be found at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392450
But, I don't know how to change my "LANG/LC_* environment settings".
How may I change them?

I've just written my /etc/env.d/02locale:
Code:
LC_ALL=it_IT@euro
LC_COLLATE=it_IT@euro
LC_CTYPE=it_IT@euro
LC_MESSAGES=it_IT@euro
LC_MONETARY=it_IT@euro
LC_NUMERIC=it_IT@euro
LC_TIME=it_IT@euro
LC_PAPER=it_IT@euro
LANG=it_IT@euro

But every time I reboot my system LC_ALL variable return to it_IT and not it_IT@euro.
Running env-update && source /etc/profile make LC_ALL to return to it_IT@euro. If I try to emerge some packages, it switch back to it_IT.

What to do next?
