Hard to say what's happening without a log.  Something of the sort occurs 
on PC platforms when you don't have one of xkbdata or xkeyboard-config 
installed.

If you're using xkeyboard-config (and you probably should be, seeing as 
xkbdata is deprecated) and didn't install the compatibility symlinks, you 
need to add:

   Option "XkbRules" "base"

to your InputDevice/Keyboard0 section.
