Hi,
I hit this too. Only after stracing X and seeing
read(11,
"N:input/event1\nS:char/13:65\nE:ID_INPUT=1\nE:ID_INPUT_KEY=1\nE:XKBMODEL=pc105\nE:XKBLAYOUT=fi\nE:XKBVARIANT=fi\nE:XKBOPTIONS=\nE:DMI_VENDOR=n",
4096) = 134
I was able to guess that X gets this information from udev. This took
me 2
By the way, it would be great if you would add a check for that in the xorg
packages postinst scripts...
otherwise we risk to have many people with a non-working X when the stable
upgrade Lenny->Squeeze comes...
:)
Regards, Ariel

Well, "nowadays" gives the impression i'm using a 5 years old
configuration... that laptop was installed from scratch 6 months ago...

#XKBMODEL="pc105"
#XKBLAYOUT="en"
#XKBVARIANT="

sorry, but you should have read my bug-report also... ;-)
I am reporting that X is not able to make the keyboard work
WITHOUT any xorg.conf c
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.5+3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders X unusable without extra configuration
After the following package upgrades, the keyboard stopped working in X,
but still works fine in the console:
xserver-common 2:1.6.5-1 --> 2:1.7.4-2
xserver
