I use a custom script for configuring my keyboard layout on login in order to 
have a portable solution on all machines and desktop systems (kde, gnome, ...):
.xprofile
----------------------------------------------------------------------
...
    setxkbmap -layout de -model pc105 -variant "nodeadkeys" -option 
"ctrl:nocaps,compose:rwin,alt_win:menu"
    xkbset m || true
    xmodmap -e "keysym Menu = Pointer_Button2" || true
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Essentially, CapsLock is modified to be an additional control key and
the right menu key is my middle mouse button (as my laptop lacks this
button).

I call .xprofile from my .profile if $DISPLAY is set sufficiently.


Problem is, that after "resume from ram" the keyboard is restored to default 
settings *sometimes*.


I expect the xkb state of the X server to be preserved across suspend / resume 
cycles.


I have the strong suspicion that the bug is triggered by delayed USB 
recognition in my docking station.  I could create a similar reset by 
unplugging my external keyboard and replugging it.  Is there a way to prevent 
this magic from happening?

$ lsb_release -rd
