Has anyone done the work needed to make the genera X screen program
understand Sun type 5 keyboards (using Sun's x server)?  I kind of got
half way to getting the layout right but I can't understand the
mapping stuff, particularly as I don't understand the whole X
keymapping nightmare (I tried changing the keycodes of the function
keys to those the keyboard actually generates, with the result that it
all stopped working -- does it use codes rather than keysyms?).

Thanks
