I had this problem to. It is because XFree86 3.2 has a new way to select
another keyboard layout (the XKEYBOARD extension). Here is the section
of my (new) XF86Config:
----------------
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# XkbDisable
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# XkbModel "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# XkbModel "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# XkbLayout "de"
# or:
# XkbLayout "de"
# XkbVariant "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# XkbOptions "ctrl:swapcaps"
# These are the default XKB settings for XFree86
# XkbRules "xfree86"
# XkbModel "pc101"
# XkbLayout "us"
# XkbVariant ""
# XkbOptions ""
XkbKeymap "xfree86(de)"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
---------------
I think the postinst of the x packages should keep the keyboard setting
(altough I don't know how cause I don't remember how national keyboard
selection was done in XFree86 3.1 ;-/ )
Bye ... Rainer
