I had similar problems getting an Sun IPX working.  I couldn't get 
gpm and X to use the mouse together very well, so I turned off
gpm and used the device "/dev/sunmouse" with protocol "busmouse"
for the mouse. My keyboard section is as follows - you'll probably
have to change XkbModel to type5.

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "keyboard"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "sun"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "type4"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
EndSection

Also, you probably want to start X using startx while testing,
so that you immediately see any error messages.
