Mmmm... my XWindows conf for the keyboard:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "keyboard"
        Option      "CoreKeyboard"
        Option      "XkbRules" "xfree86"
        Option      "XkbModel" "macintosh"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection

Although I (suspect you do too :-) have a spanish laptop, I use an
american key layout coz I am more used to it and I find it more
comfortable :-) In any case, there are a couple of threads in the list
talking about keymaps, etc for X windows... they can probably help you
better! ;-) Just try the american keyboard layout... if everything works
fine for such a keyboard, then it must be that the actual layout you are
using is slightly wrong...

Also, FYI, my /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz is one of the
/usr/share/keymaps/mac/ keymaps, so perhaps you would like to
investigate around there :-? I just saw some mac-es.kmap.gz that might
work? :-? 

Good luck!
