What's wrong about the "old-fashioned" way of using xorg.conf as
a central means of X configuration? :-)

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Keyboard0"
        Driver          "kbd"
        Option          "XkbModel"              "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"             "de"
        Option          "AutoRepeat"            "250 30"
EndSection

Of course, you have to set the correct codes for spanish layout
(setting XkbLayout), it should be "es".
