Hi, everyone. I just upgraded my ArchLinux system, and my xorg.conf
file got wacked. I've got everything figured out, except for some
strange behavior with my keyboard now. The problem is that for
instance ctrl+alt+backspace does doesn't get me out of my X session,
it gets me ÿ, and shift+backspace gets me the normally expected
behavior of ctrl+alt+backspace. Here is the relevant section in
xorg.conf


 Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier  "Keyboard0"
       Driver      "kbd"
       Option      "CoreKeyboard"
       Option      "XkbRules" "xorg"
#       Option      "XkbModel" "pc104"
       Option      "XkbModel" "thinkpad60"
       Option      "XkbLayout" "us"
   EndSection

Anyone have any idea how to troubleshoot this?

Thanks ~ Chris
