Still looking at this. If I call system-config-keyboard, it correctly
shows "Irish" being selected. If I press the OK button I get on
stderr: "cannot open file ie".

In directory /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty there are 120 keymaps. I was
expecting to see a file whose name starts with "ie", but there is not.
"yum provides" and "yum search" also yielded nothing.

Any ideas?
