Okay, I've gotten some responses, and I've gone through my system, and made various keyboard changes: * Set the layout to non-US (I tested Tamil and US with dead keys) * Added various keyboard layout options * Checked and unchecked the overrideSettings GConf key I am not able to reproduce the problem others are seeing. Everything I did worked (meaning the desired changes took effect), and did not produce any errors. If you're still having a problem with this, I suggest you collect any console output seen either in ~/.xsession-errors or on your VTY, and file a bug in GNOME's Bugzilla (I could not find one). I did not see any change in g-c-c 2.12.2 that should cause this problem. If you do file a bug, please follow up to the mailing list with the bug ID.
