When I did the fast-hack version of console support for VS3100, the wscons
system didn't like so much else than a PC keyboard :-) Those things have
changed later, I assume. 
The keyboard and mouse actually speaks on a normal serial port, so it is
nothing strange with them.

Bugs? :-)

That's because of how it is written right now. If the vaxstation uses
a directly attached keyboard, it steals everything that comes in on 
the keyboard/mouse serial ports. This is a hack.

Yes, that's correct. wskbd and wsmouse is currently unused. This should be
fixed. (which means that someone should write that code :-)

Well, I think this is what needs to be done:
1) Understand how wskbd/wsmouse work.
2) Find out a way to connect the vax keyboard/mouse to wskbd/wsmouse.
3) Write code that does all this.
4) Hack the X server for vax to speak the wskbd/wsmouse interface.

I think there is a lot of things in the pmax port that can be looked at.

Wow. I think it may be the first NetBSD/vax meeting ever? :-)
