Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.20.2-1
Severity: normal

I get this on every login:

    The X system keyboard settings differ from your current
    GNOME keyboard settings.

    Expected was model "generic", layout "us" and no
    options, but the the following settings were found:
    model "pc105", layout "gb" and no options.

    Which set would you like to use?

jon at qusp:~$ gconftool-2 -a /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd.sysbackup
 layouts = [us]
 model = generic
jon at qusp:~$ gconftool-2 -a /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = []
 model = 
 overrideSettings = true
 options = []

Despite this, in the keyboard preferences dialogue, under
layouts, I have just "United Kingdom" and it is selected as
the default, and standard intl 105 key pc as the model.
