To those of you who are having these problems, do you have the
"firmware-linux" package installed?
Otherwise it could be that firmware is missing for your hardware.
Seems like firmware was extracted into its own package as of kernel
2.6.32.

I just installed firmware-linux and it dragged in firmware-linux-
nonfree . I rebooted afterwards, just to be sure. It did *not* solve
my problem. The keyboard is still dead in X.
I repeat, in my case, the keyboard works fine as long as X is not
running.
Some other people have a slightly different problem. They have dead
keyboards even during boot -- e.g. when it's time to enter their
crypto keys.
FWIW, my USB keyboard is present and is recognized as a keyboard:

Also FWIW, I have no xorg.conf file. This was working fine until a
recent upgrade.
Thanks for any help you can give...
