I had the exact same symptom in a new Lenny installation a while ago. 
In the end, it turned out that some lines were missing in my xorg.conf:

<snip>

Section "InputDevice"
    # generated from default
    Identifier     "Keyboard0"
    Driver         "kbd"
    Option		"XkbRules"	"xorg"
    Option		"XkbLayout"	"si"
	
EndSection

</snip>

To be exact, one of the last two lines (or both of them) were missing 
and had to be added manually. Of course, your layout would not be "si" 
but "gb" or something like that.
