No keyboard with GDM on F14

When I boot F14 and I reach the GDM screeen there is simply no field to
enter the user ID and no user list, apparently it doesn't detect the
keyboard.  This happens both with an USB keyboard and with a PS/2 one.

If I force a restart of GDM either through CTRl-ALT-BS or through a
telinit 3, telinit 5 on a non-graphiacl console then then new GDM works
as it is supposed to do.

My guess is that Dracut starts GDM before the keyboard and that is why X
doesn't detect it and GDM doesn't work.
