Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Tue, 24 Aug 1999 19:13:03 -0600 Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I need to add a keypad to a product in development that will co-exist with the standard keyboard. It will be a fairly dumb pad capable of generating the equivalent of function keys F1 thru F8. The desired goals are: invisible to the syscons driver (and thus X11). works in parallel (ie. simultaniously) with the keyboard. Looking over the kbd/atkbd/atkbdc/syscons source I havn't yet "seen" a clear strategy for cleanly hooking into the existing code. Any suggestions? I also could use a pointer to any docs out there that describe the structure behind this new bus organization, and the keyboard drivers in particular! tia, -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
