I don't know if this will help you, but my InputDevice section looks like:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "keyboard"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc104"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
EndSection

I think that the most important Options to you are XkbModel and XkbLayout.  My keyboard is just a standard-issue US-spec 104-key Logitech with Windows keys.  HTH
