My suggestion is to try the following as your xorg.conf file -- 

Code: Select allSection "ServerLayout"
    Identifier    "system-config-keyboard Configured"
    InputDevice   "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier    "Keyboard0"
    Driver        "kbd"
    Option        "XkbModel" "pc105+inet"
    Option        "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier    "Videocard0"
    Driver        "vesa"
EndSection
