Can you run: service haldaemon status service messagebus status Also, run grep xkb_options /var/log/Xorg.0.log It should say something like (**) Option "xkb_options" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" severals times. If not 10-keymap-custom.fdi is not loaded. And: grep xkb_rules /var/log/Xorg.0.log This should say (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" If not, you do not use evdev but probably kbd. You don't need to run Xorg -configure. Just create an xorg.conf with the lines from previous mail. Try ctrl-alt-backspace before login (where display manager kdm or gdm ask you for user and password). Try changing gdm with kdm: echo "DISPLAYMANAGER=KDE" > /etc/sysconfig/desktop init 3; sleep 5; init 5 (be sure kdm is installed: yum -y install kdm).
