Cub'X-Window works fine with ADB keyboards, with no patch required. Reason  
for this is  Cub'X-Window keyboard mapping has been developed in order to  
follow NeXT keyboard mapping. It  strictly adapts to NeXT keyboard  
preferences, permitting to use all NeXT International keyboards, and the  
ADB. 
Cub'X-Window keyboard accepts accents and other specific letters, and also  
adapts to X requirements, such as different treatment of right and left  
Shift key.
