[ 24703.710] (**) Keyboard0: always reports core events
[ 24703.710] (EE) Keyboard0: No device specified.
[ 24703.710] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev"
[ 24703.710] (EE) PreInit returned NULL for "Keyboard0"
you defined a (new) keyboard in the config, which doesn't actually point
to a device (the old kbd driver didn't need a device, but it didn't work
for other reasons...) so that X basically ignored that section
and your "real" keyboard device did get added automatically later
albeit without your settings...
the most correct way with a newer xorg is to create a file in
/etc/xorg.conf.d where you put an entry, which would *match* your
keyboard device (that gets automatically created) and add the options to
it, basically something like:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "pl keyboard layout"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbModel" "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "pl"
EndSection
can't find gentoo specific doc / page for this stuff, but
man xorg.conf (search for InputClass) and google for
xorg.conf.d and/or InputClass should give you something usefull
