Keyboard Mapping Problems (and a fix)

[castelow@lineone.net]

I am using Cygwin/X with the following packages installed:
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-base
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-bin
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-bin-dlls
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-bin-lndir
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-etc
6.8.1.0-2    xorg-x11-fenc
6.8.1.0-3    xorg-x11-fnts
6.8.2.0-1    xorg-x11-libs-data
6.8.2.0-2    xorg-x11-xwin

and on a Dell laptop (windows XP SP 2) cannot get the (GB) keyboard to be
recognised until I add the following symbolic link:

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb -> /etc/X11/xkb
