I was thinking that it take forever but actually it take very long and
at the and it shut down de PC Box. I get finally a xorg.conf.new file.

I used 'Xorg -configure :1' command on an xterm when I'm on my running
XWindow.

Yes, but did you tryed more than one XkbLayout, like eg.: "es,fr"?
In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have now:
***
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "hu,hr,cs"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
***
but it doesn't works. :( On Debian Lenny this setup just works and I can
there us fookb-wmaker successfully.

I have now in my /etc/default/keyboard the following:
***
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="hu,hr,cs"
XKBVARIANT="nodeadkeys"
XKBOPTIONS=""
***
and I run 'sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart' and restart the hald but
fookb-wmaker still doesn't works.
