When your arrow keys doesn’t work

I just updated my Kubuntu 8.10 to KDE 4.2 RC1 and again the arrow and some others keys stopped working. Again because in one of the beta versions I had a similar problem. This problem was solved in KDE’s control center. Under “Regional & Accessibility” -> “Keyboard Layouts” I enabled keyboard layouts and chose Evdev-managed keyboard from the list.

But this time I had to disable the keyboard layout and put this to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "off"
EndSection

Now everything is working fine.
