I can also say that the XKB error is not just a Mac problem.  I ran into
that same error today (I too get it on my Macs)...while demoing an iGel
thin-client (has a flash based OS that has serveral clients like RDP, ICA,
also has a local version of Firefox with Flash-plugin...which is

suppress this error message)
