Hm, I have no further ideas. Does using deprecated keyboard driver still =
work?=20
It's explained here:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-sparc64/2005-February/002775.h=
tml

You can grab a patch here:
http://www.ijs.si/~lesi/xorg/xorg-server-sparc64-enabledepreckeyboard.dif=
f
It will remove the patch that obviously doesn't help and enable =
'keyboard'=20
driver on sparc64 platform. If this still works and nobody comes up with =

something better, this should probably be commited.

Can somebody explain the problem on X.Org mailing list=20
(xorg@lists.freedesktop.org=20
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg)
If no one is willing I'll let them know about this problem (since =
'keyboard'=20
driver is deprecated it will eventually go away), but it would probably =
be=20
more useful if somebody with problem can mail them since of course it =
would=20
be easier to communicate and debug this.

Dejan:

I'll try to test "xorg-server-sparc64-enabledepreckeyboard.diff" =
tommorow=20
when I am back in the office.

I'll be happy to make a post on the Xorg list after testing, can=20
you tell me though is the list "ok/cool/hip" with the FreeBSD ports=20
patch/install system -or- will they be expecting that I had compiled=20
the source tree from scratch and report problems against that.

If they expect me to compile from source I'll attempt that before
posting. =20

Please advise.
