Hehe. Looks like dt or X to the rescue. I always wondered why we don't use
the code similar dt for both the console and the keyboard. Sure, it's a little
more memory hungry but it's certainly more flexible and much faster.
International keyboards? No problem, just compile a kernel with the right
keymap...maybe someday. :)

I imagine this will be included in ADBTEST. I would also imagine that JPW could
deal with those anomolous keyboards directly in his code.
