    Hello,

    I have installed Ubuntu 8.04 using parallels on my macbook pro. I am from Denmark, so
    that means Ubuntu needs to be configured to use a Danish MacBook Pro keyboard. Does anyone know how that can be accomplished??
    Be aware, that I am not much of an experienced Ubuntu user, sorry.

    Secondly, I have tried to go to System->Preferences->Keyboard and experimenting with the keyboard settings but everytime I end up getting the 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:
    The X.Org Foundation:
    10400090

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


    Thanks in advance.
