Thanks - so it doesn't get any useful information from
wskbd or wsmouse, just from the tty itself. The program
requires at reast one of ws*, which seems bogus then.
(I've got additional problems - "device busy" errors
on wskbd although nothing uses it. Could be a wsmux
issue - yet have to understand it.)
