I am not sure of what you are changing from and to.
The basic hardware level is most commonly set in:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
See the section:
Section "InputDevice"
Mine has comments like:
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
And these lines in the InputDevice section:
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
There are window manager, font, language and locale issues
that may require you to tell us more.
Is this what you are doing.
$ /usr/bin/system-config-keyboard
Loading /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.map.gz
* running ['/usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap', '-layout', 'us', '-model', \
'pc105', '-option', '']
