I have a quite weird problem I just cannot get rid off. I am using ArchLinux and as I am from Germany the german keyboard layout and such.
So when I start Gnome via startx it is said that Gnome is not able to work I must logout. I have get rid of this problem two times but just until I restart. After the rebot the same problem occurs and I am no longer able to use Gnome. I have get rid of the problem as long as I do not reboot but I do not excatly know what is causing this problem. First I get warnings from XKEYBOARD:
XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Compat map for group 2 redifined. Compat map for group 3 redifined. Compat map for group 4 redifined. Using new definitions. Type "ONELEVEL" has 1 levels, but <RALT> has 2 Symbols. The it says:
xinit:Connection to X server lost And my log file says the following, but I have shorten it:
[user@Work log]$ grep -e WW -e EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old [ 1281.385] Current Operating System: Linux Work 3.16.3-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Sep 17 21:54:13 CEST 2014 x86_64 (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

Closing log file. Then I aslo found some posts on similar problems so I have added three files to the directory /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. The first time this has solved the problem I guess, but it still does not work.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-keyboard.conf
Section "InputClass" Identifier "system-keyboard" MatchIsKeyboard "on" Option "XkbLayout" "de" Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys" EndSection /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-keyboard.conf
Section "InputClass" Identifier "system-keyboard" MatchIsKeyboard "on" Option "XkbLayout" "de" Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys" EndSection /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "NoAccel" "True" EndSectio And regenerate the locales with locale-gen.
Please help me, as I just do not know what to do anymore. :D
