I'm trying to port the sparc version of NetBSD to Sun's first line of
JavaStations (SUNW,JavaStation-1, they look like an external CD box).
To my suprise, they appear to be a fairly run of the mill sun4m (sbus,
lance ethernet, some sort of tcx video).  I've actually got NetBSD
running on one, compiled X11R6.3, and was able to run the X server.

The catch is the PC (with PS/2 plugs) style keyboard and mouse.
I've fiddled with the kbd driver, but I'm not getting anything
from the keyboard.  I don't even know if the keyboard is on 
zs1.  The PROM doesn't open the keyboard at all.  There is a
zs0, but if I leave it in the kernel config file, the kernel
panics with the message "findzs: zs0 not mapped by PROM".

To be honest, these things don't make very good JavaStations.  We're
hoping to make them useful as xterminals.  They ought to be at least
as good as the 3/80s and sun4cs that we currently use as xterminals.

If anyone has or knows where I can find some more information about
these boxes, or has any tips or ideas, I'd be really greatful.  I'm
attaching the output of dmesg for anyone who is interested.  (Can
anyone shed some light on the stuff that is listed as "not
configured"?  Like, what is a SUNW,CS4231?  Audio, maybe?)

Thanks.
