hi mark, i think that someone (usual suspect is gnome) is playing with
your xkb configuration

try turning off xkb altogether (i did it! and i got back my
keyboard...)

what it takes is editing xorg.conf,

1) modify the server layout introducing to the server another keyboard

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Default Layout"
    Screen         "Default Screen" 0 0
    InputDevice    "Another Keyboard"
    InputDevice    "Configured Mouse"
EndSection

2) define another keyboard, where xkb is disabled
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Another Keyboard"
    Driver         "keyboard"
    Option         "CoreKeyboard"
    Option         "XkbDisable" "True"
EndSection

restart the server

e di sùbito parve giorno a giorno
essere aggiunto, come quei che puote
avesse il ciel d'un altro sole addorno
