I just installed Debian (woody) on a new box. Whenever I invoke X11 (kdm) the keyboard stops working. When configuring xserver, I have tried both pc101 and pc104 (I think it starts pc).

Do you mean that, or do you mean you have a USB keyboard? If your keyboard really is plugged into a real serial port ("my only console is a dumb terminal") I don't think X will love you at all. Otherwise, Google ("usb keyboard xfree86") suggests that USB keyboards should, in general, Just Work under X.
