Seeing 
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-system-setup-keyboard.conf 
# This file is autogenerated by system-setup-keyboard. Any 
# modifications will be lost.

I remembered that Fedora also could make system-config-synaptics like
others system-configs .

and command system-setup-keyboard is not present in F18, we got
localectl set-x11-keymap [1].

So we need update
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Input_device_configuration .
And system-config-keyboard ?
