Dear Hackers,

any comments/objections/etc. to the following devd.conf patch? the idea 
is to prevent devd(8) from trying to switch keyboards when kbdmux(4) is 
the default keyboard.

the 'attach' action will fail anyway, however, the 'detach' action may 
succeed (if /dev/kbd0 is not is the kbdmux(4)).

another idea is to comment out these entries if/when kbdmux(4) will 
become default.

thanks,
max
