16 Make sure you set the right keyboard model - it's set from the "Keyboard
17 Layout" config. If you use evdev for your keyboard driver, set the model
18 to "Evdev-managed keyboard"; otherwise, use on of the "Generic" models.

20 If this started happening recently, my guess is that you've upgraded
21 xf86-input-evdev and the new version is automatically detecting your keyboard
22 and mouse and assigning them to the evdev driver. In case you don't want
23 automatic input detection, add
24
25 Section "ServerFlags"
26 Option "AutoAddDevices" "off"
27 EndSection
28
29 to your xorg.conf.
