What a reboot to fix Xorg keyboard drivers? Thats not the Linux way.

Press at the same time Ctrl + Alt + SysRq + r
Then press Ctrl + Alt + F1
Login as root and type emerge x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev
Then /etc/init.d/xdm restart

Citing Alan Mackenzies:
It's a
strange, depressing feeling when the only input device which works is the
reset button - thank goodness that isn't handled by evdev.  ;-)
