I'm using the "keyboard" driver. In previous testing I used both kbd and 
keyboard, but both resulted in a messed up keyboard. Here is the 
relevant xorg.conf bit:

Section "InputDevice"

    Identifier  "Keyboard1"
    Driver      "keyboard"

#   Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
     Option "XkbRules"    "sun"
     Option "XkbModel"    "type5_euro"
     Option "XkbLayout"   "us"
     Option "XkbVariant"  "basic"
#   Option "KxbKeycodes" "sun(type5c_se)"
