[NBLUG/talk] Slight hiccup with Fedora 2 install

[Todd Cary]

When boot into the Gnome X server, I am getting a keyboard error (not 
when I pick KDE) and once I click OK on the dialog, all is fine:

xprop -root | grep XKB
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/xkb

Those are the two lines in the Warning.

Also, I notice that the symbolic link for X in /etc/X11/ is wrong 
(flashing red).  So, here I am trying to apply what Mark presented in 
his Intro to Unix Admin, however the interdependence of the components 
of X boot process has me overwhelmed.

Another note: if I select Gnome as my preference (using the GUI 
interface) when in KDE, the system continues to boot into KDE.  By 
picking Gnome as startup (Session) and then setting Gnome with the GUI, 
it will boot into Gnome.

What is the best diagnostic strategy to use to find the problem?
