I'm using xorg on my macbook with ubuntu dapper. My xorg.conf is configured as followed: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "CoreKeyboard" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "macbook" Option "XkbLayout" "fr" EndSection And I'm using the updated fr layout that can be found on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6382 The keyboard works perfectly except that the keys "@ #" and "< >" are swapped. This is nothard to fix, but how and where to fix in a clean way is not evident. I fixed this by changing a little bit rules/xorg (so that it recognize "macbook" model and load a little extra configuration in symbols/macintosh_vndor/apple for attributing the right keys). I'm not sure that it's the right thing to do. I'll include modified files as an attachments.

Are you talking about xkeyboard-config or xkbdata? IIRC it was fixed at some point. Could you please have a look at xkeyboard-config CVS - and, if possible, attach a patch against it.
