I'll work on getting that done. I Basically remove ofw_console, sab and zs from your kernel config file and add creator, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV, sc, puc and uart instead. Before booting the new kernel enable ttyvX in /etc/ttys and make sure the input-device and output-device Open Firmware system config parameters are set to keyboard and screen respectively. For moused_type in /etc/rc.conf use "mousesystems" and for moused_port "/dev/uart3" in FreeBSD 5, "/dev/cuau3" in -current. > just notice that when I run xorgconfig that none of the sun cards are in > the card database.

You would have to compile 6.8.1 manually with the old "keyboard" driver (disabled by default) or add support for Sun keyboards to the FreeBSD specific part of the "kbd" driver. The xorg-server-6.7.0_9 port however still used the "keyboard" driver by default and should work out of the box with the mentioned config file. Marius
