Helge,

I'm now using X11R6 in my house for learning the UN*X administration on my
LC III 12MB w/FPU.

I'm using Xmacbsd9509?? (I forgot exact file name)

>My machine is a  Performa 460 without FPU

I remember that I haven't successed to come up a X-window without fpu. So I
bought a fpu for my LC III.

In my case, I didn't have the keyboard problem but I had the mouse cursor
problem. The mouse cursor doesn't move with ADBTEST #77 kernel neither with
#78.
But the previous Wittkoski's kernel doesn't provoke of this kind of problem
at this time.

Is your machine locked up after this message?
It takes quite a bit time until a window comes up from appearance of this
message. In my case, it takes about one minutes.

Last question. Do you boot MacBSD with 1 bit (N/B) color mode? Xmacbsd
supports only 1 bit color mode.
