there's a second issue after correcting tty0 by hand: If I don’t boot in recovery, but launch standard init2 mode (without X) change tty0 values (grp to tty, g+rw) launch X -> everything should work, but the keyboard doesn’t (trackpad is OK):
the console delivers warnings and errors from xkbcomp: compat map for groups 2,3,4 are redefined for each one, Mod5 is ignored, « one_level » has 1 level but <RALT> has 2 symbols.
