I'm using the "keyboard" driver. In previous testing I used both kbd and keyboard, but both resulted in a messed up keyboard. Here is the relevant xorg.conf bit:

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Keyboard1" Driver "keyboard"

# Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30" Option "XkbRules" "sun" Option "XkbModel" "type5_euro" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbVariant" "basic" # Option "KxbKeycodes" "sun(type5c_se)"

For those still looking for a solution to get their type5 keyboard working under FreeBSD/sparc64 running Xorg6.8.x, this is what did it for me (surprisingly!):

Delete the patch-sparc64kbd file (in the files directory of the port), and then build && install the port. That's it, works for me.

Are you using the new kbd driver? Because the latest xorg-port (xorg-server-6.8.2_2) builds the deprecated keyboard driver for sparc64.

If you are using the new driver, please send the keyboard-config form your xorg.conf.
