I recently grabbed the binaries for XFree86 1.2 from agate, and grabbed
all the codrv and pccons stuff in order to defer any decision on the matter.
However, now I have to choose, and I'm not sure what's up:
I've been using the codrv kernel that comes with the package, and it's quite
the cool piece of software, but the XFree README.386BSD says that I still
have to ftp some sort of keyboard driver.
So, do I have to:
a> do nothing---the supplied kernel has all this
b> get the 0.2.1 patchkit, Holger Veit's Keyboard driver, and try to rebuild
the kernel this way
c> Something else that my small mind has missed...?
Toodlepip!
Marc 'em.
