This may be of no help at all, but have you tried setting the keyboard model 
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? Mine contains the following keyboard definition for 
a standard PC keyboard; maybe there's an equivalent for yours:

-- 
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbModel"  "pc105"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "gb"
        Option      "Xleds"     "1 2 3"
EndSection
