Mine's a non-usb type 6, but I'll give the pc102 a shot tonight.

I've got xorg-server-6.8.2_6, built over the weekend, which looks like
the latest. The keyboard is detected ok, with the following in dmesg:

uart2: keyboard (1200,n,8,1)
kbd0 at sunkbd0

Some of the keys work in xorg, but the keymapping seems to be wrong.
