Bug#261219: followup, altered configuration

I looked some stuff up and apparently the variant I had configured
didn't match up exactly. So I edited it and then edited gnome settings.
My updated information is:
xprop -root | grep XKB
_XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc104", "us_intl", "", ""
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xfree86", "pc104", "us_intl", "", ""
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb
layouts = [us_intl]
model = pc104
overrideSettings = false
options = []
update_handlers = []

This gets rid of the annoying error messages but still complains about
a discrepancy between gnome and X settings, asking me to choose between
the two. I guess the original problem occurred because once set the
gnome configuration is not updated, resulting in the discrepancy. What I
would have to change to synchronize the two I don't know but it would be
nice if there is an easy fix to the popping up of that message every
time I start gnome.

greets,
Wim
