           Summary: xkb: mt symbols file wrong
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.7.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Input/Keyboard
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: rcasha at waldonet.net.mt


The file /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/mt is incorrect. Apparently XFree86 in MDK10.0
was using the file symbols/mt (which includes the gb keyboard), while XOrg in
MDK10.1 is using symbols/pc/mt (which includes the basic keyboard). Anyway below
is the modified file which works. Essentially I just copied the needed lines
from gb.
