Hmm. And there are no files in xorg-server/files directory other then the ones 
listed here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server/files/
and patch-bsd_KbdMap.c.2 ?

To recap (correct me if I get this wrong), Michael G. Jung has Ultra2 and 
Aaron Dudek has Ultra60. Has anybody got keyboard working on Ultra10 under X?
I don't know much about sparcs. Is there something specific about Ultra10 
keyboard that could give us the clue about this.
Have you had X.Org 6.7 installed? Did that work? And you said that using old 
'keyboard' driver works, right?
I feel horrible that you had to go through several recompiles and reinstalls 
and at the end keyboard seems to work for others, but we still have no 
solution for Ultra10 other than the old driver workaround :( I'm afraid I 
have no more ideas about this (not that previous ones were any good). The 
best I can do is to add a knob to xorg-server Makefile (say 
WITH_OLD_KEYBOARD) so it enables the workaround when used. Perhaps if you ask 
on xorg@lists.freedesktop.org mailing list (see 
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg) about this problem which 
seems specific to Ultra10 keyboard or file a bug report at 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/
Again thank you for testing and recompiles and reinstalls. I wish I could be 
of more help.
