dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
will drive you trough a bunch of questions to reconfigure X and set
proper keyboard details.

Try first reconfiguring the server. If that is not enough please open a
bug in bugzilla.

<fajita> Whatever the problem, step one is always to look in the error log.

<fajita> When in danger or in doubt, step two is to scream and shout.
