Te pego la info directamente del handbook:Note: As previously explained since version 7.4, by default, the hald daemon will automatically detect your keyboard. There are chances that your keyboard layout or model will not be correct, desktop environments like GNOME, KDE or Xfce provide tools to configure the keyboard. However, it is possible to set the keyboard properties directly either with the help of the setxkbmap(1) utility or with a hald's configuration rule.
For example if one wants to use a PC 102 keys keyboard coming with a french layout, we have to create a keyboard configuration file for hald called x11-input.fdi and saved in the /usr/local/etc/hal/fdi/policy directory. This file should contain the following lines:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keyboard">
<merge key="input.x11_options.XkbModel" type="string">pc102</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.XkbLayout" type="string">fr</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
If this file already exists, just copy and add to your file the lines regarding the keyboard configuration.
You will have to reboot your machine to force hald to read this file.
It is possible to do the same configuration from an X terminal or a script with this command line:
% setxkbmap -model pc102 -layout fr
The /usr/local/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.lst file lists the various keyboard, layouts and options available.
