With
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
in the config the logfile has
(--) Setting autorepeat to delay=250, rate=15
(--) winConfigKeyboard - Layout: "00000809" (00000809)
(--) Using preset keyboard for "English (United Kingdom)" (809), type
"4"
Rules = "xfree86" Model = "pc105" Layout = "gb" Variant = "(null)"
Options = "(null)"
Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap
I've just Googled for
"Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap"
and in newsgroups and it looks like the problem is very very common
and possibly not specific to the cygwin port of xfree86. So I am not
alone.
As I said the config file thing worked on a fairly (few month old)
release of cygwin X.
