_XKB_RULES_NAMES is an internal X-server property which for some reason is 
missing on some versions of Xorg and freenx combinations. Setxkbmap should 
set it automatically if it finds the specified layout (pc105 de in your 
case). However, in this case setxkbmap doesn't find the layout and you should 
consult perhaps gentoos xorg wiki for a correct layout. In short 
_XKB_RULES_NAMES has nothing or very little to do with your problem.
