Yes I still have this issue, after all this time.
However I switched to another distribution (Arch Linux 64bit). I re-used my
xorg.conf and I'm having the same issues. The keyboard is broken in the same
way (only in xorg), although I don't get the popup errors (but that's probably
an ubuntu feature. I switched to Xfcee too btw)
So it looks like an xorg (configuration) issue, independent of the distribution.
My xorg-server is now (on Arch) 1.4.2, xorg-xkb-utils & xorg-utils 7.3.
Right now I'm playing with the kbd xorg keyboard driver and trying out (our
leaving out) various options (XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbOptions etc). What I
notice is that sometimes when I started X and Xfce is loaded, the keyoard on
the laptop works just fine, but a while later the layout is f*** again (maybe
because I've typed on the usb keyboard in the meanwhile?).
This happens with these settings:
<code>
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "macbook79"
# Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "be"
Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak"
# Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch"
EndSection
</code>
