Hi, just for the records: I found the reason and the solution.
The 1.4.0.99 server uses hal to detect input devices etc. To configure
that properly one needs policy files inside /etc/hal/fdi/policy
Google for "hal xorg gentoo input" or "hal xorg evdev" to read more
about this.
Also if your keyboard stops working, your layout changed to US, Xorg
crashes on plugging in USB Keyboards, etc. you should look after this.
Furthermore it can't be bad to have up to date input drivers, currently
this means in particular evdev-1.2.0

thanks
Thomas
