Now when I have beside /etc/default/keyboard
***
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="hu,hr,cs"
XKBVARIANT="nodeadkeys"
XKBOPTIONS=""
***

the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file too
***
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbRules" "xorg"
        Option      "XkbModel" "pc105"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "hu,hr,cs"
        Option      "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
***

I try out that that I rename xorg.conf so Xorg not to find it at start
and keep the /etc/default/keyboard file only. After I rebooted I get the
multi layout XWindow system wit Hungaruan, Croatian and Serbian Cyrillic
languages.

However I have installed hal but that isn't necessary to get this setup
to work, right?
