Greetings: I'm attempting to get X working on Ultra2 - With many thanks to Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@xcllnt.net>, I was able to=20 get keyboard support working on both Ultra2 and Ultra1-E=20 using 6.0-CURRENT. For X I'm using a serial mouse which seems to work fine,=3D20 however the keyboard does not function as expected within X applications like Kword, xterm, etc. Keys on the keyboard produce incorrect but=3D20 consistent key patterns on the screen. For example in xterm the key"4" always produces=3D20 "ff", key "5" produces "fg", key "6" produces=3D20 "fh" etc. The keyboard works great outside of X. This is Xorg 6.8.1 implementation or X installed from ports. When I started firing off xterm on a remote machine targeting the sun's local DISPLAY I got the messages: Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default Failed to open input method Which if I get it right means that Xlib doesn't know how to map the keyboard for my locallity set by the variable LANG ?? How do you know what locales xlib supports? looking in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale or the output of locale -a hasn't yielded results for me. I certainly don't have any=20 experience here... I've tried many values but only with the same results... I know this is bleeding edge on these old Sparc boxes - thanks in advance for any suggestions. --mikej
