That's a good sign...  Now remove the key cap ...  :-)

Could you look in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config and see what is in
Section "InputDevice" for the keyboard?

You should see something like:

        Option      "XkbRules" "xfree86"
        Option      "XkbModel" "pc105"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "us"
