That seems to work. I installed the evtest package and started "evtest /dev/input/event0". It show events either type "Misc" or, when I press a key, type "Key" together with the correct key code. So, is it possible, as there where so many keyboards detected in the Xorg.log that X simply does not work with the "correct" one? > (II) config/udev: Adding input device Power Button
