You have at least 2 courses of action:
1) Add a udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules
# A rule to define our keyboard layout.
KERNEL=="event*", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="?*", ENV{xkblayout}="gb",
ENV{xkbmodel}="pc105"
2) Add a configuration file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
# Configuration for evdev-controlled input devices.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "pointer"
Driver "evdev"
MatchIsPointer "on"
EndSection
I used both, just to be sure, to be sure.
