Nope, "la" (latinamerican keyboard). This problem seems to be related to a
lack of sync between the server symbols and the client symbols... I fail to
see why they should be in sync, when they can be completely different
machines. I think that this is GNOME's fault, and that there's where it
should be fixed (but this belongs to a different bug report, of course).

Yes, only on the Xorg stations. On the XFree86 I got the XKB error, but no
sigsegv.
