Hiya folks,

Selecting Protocol "wskbd" locally separates X keyboard input from getty and
addresses the problem on my sparc with a consumer Logitech USB keyboard. Would
it be appropriate to make that the sparc64 default?

I can see reasons to be cautious, mixed Sun and USB or KVM keyboards could be
interpreted incorrectly in mysterious ways, which I could see happening but
not all that often.

Matthieu discussed the mux limitation in 2010 and largely I agree with his
take here: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-x11/2010/06/20/msg000790.html

Anyway, I've included the small local Xenocara proposal below. I don't know
whether an OpenBSD guard belongs here either. Does changing the default make
sense, or should this remain an explicit configuration choice?

Ted
