- How do I set up NetBSD to use another keyboard type? I have some
SPARCSstations ELC which use the Sun4.US keyboard (or something like that,
model 4, not 5, for sure) and some keys (such as the keypad) are not
working.
i have some changes that i will find and send to you that make at least
the "front" and "open" keys work. it is probably not hard to make them
work for all keys.
- Is there any "receipt" of setting up X Windows to look like
Openwindows on NetBSD?
well, the simplest way to do this is to run *real* openwin. just put
it in /usr/openwin and it should work, as long as you have set up
compat_sunos (see compat_sunos(8)).
note: i will also try to get the keymaps into the netbsd/sparc X11R6.1
binary set that will be distributed with 1.2 (sparc only?), and into
all following releases. but no promises on 1.2 :)
