Re: [ES40-developers] NetBSD Panic Keyboard problems -- not ES40's Fault?

[Camiel V. <iam...@gm...>]

Hello Brian,

I'm happy to hear that. I was already pretty confident that the
emulated keyboard was doing the right thing, this more or less
confirms that the same issue occurs on real Alpha hardware. I'll treat
it as a bug in NetBSD and stop trying to fix the emulator unless some
other information becomes available.

Camiel.
