Help: ADB keyboard/mouse and XFree86 4.2?

Once I start up X Windows via startx, the keyboard goes dead.
Admittedly, I never get all the way into X Windows, so this could be
the problem, but then I also can't switch consoles using Alt-Fn (or
Ctl-Alt-Fn) as I can before I start X, so I suspect something may be
wrong with the keyboard part of my X config.
If I ssh in to my box and kill X manually, the keyboard becomes
responsive again.
$ rpm -q XFree86
XFree86-4.2.0-6.30d
$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.4.18-0.8a (root@kaelta.terraplex.com) (gcc version 2.95.4 20010319 (prerelease/franzo/20011204)) #1 Wed Feb 27 23:25:46 EST 2002
I've appended the contents of both /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and
/var/log/XFree86.0.log to this message.
I'm using an ADB keyboard (an Alps GlidePoint circa 1997) with an
embedded trackpad that emulates an ADB mouse.
I saw somewhere on the Web that perhaps the XkbModel option is no
longer used with XFree86; is that true?
Also, should I specify "/dev/mouse" or "/dev/adbmouse" as my mouse
device? I've looked at all the docs I could find on xfree86.org,
but I couldn't find any specifics on this question.
Thanks,
