Hoi tron,
I'm not sure at which address I should reply to so this ends up in gnats
(gnats-bugs@netbsd.org ?) and gets appended to the PR, sending to you as
a start :)

Hello,
I have seen the same (some more info including xev responses
to broken keys at:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2005/07/07/0002.html
Resolved due:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2005/07/09/0007.html
in:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2005/07/09/0011.html
)
>From the last of these emails, here is what X -configure gives you (kbd driver):
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "Protocol" "wskbd"
Option "Device" "/dev/wskbd"
EndSection
And here is the working entry:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
This is on a NetBSD-current (NetBSD 3.99.7 (GENERIC.MP) #0: Thu Jul 7 04:39:09 CEST 2005)
with xsrc from the same date.
Hope that helps,
-Martin
