Well I've worked that one out from another post in the archive:
: These files should reside in /etc/X11/xkb and there should be a symlink to

Get the file from http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/xfree/XF86Config.bz2
unpackit with bunzip and copy the file to /etc/X11/XF86Config.
Now search for the line
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel"
Hi,
I guess based on your email address that you're in Italy, so probably
you don't know that "KKK" has a very, very bad connotation in the
United States where many of the Cygwin subscribers reside.

Hi
You will need more than that in your /etc/X11/XF86Config file:-
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "dummy"

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard1"
Driver "Keyboard"
