Hi!

   I bought a new adapter for my second keyboard. The old one died. So I
had two keyboard hooked up to my computer. Fixes a few bugs. Now if you
have two displays and two keyboards text will displayed to a specific
screen. Since I have only one vga card and no mda but 2 keyboards I can 
only use the one keyboard. then I tested the /dev/input interface and both
keyboards showed up and I could use both of them :-) I just updated the
cvs to test3 but discovered the default kernel is broken. Will have to
update again. By tonight. The fix for the timer bug is

Your kernel will compile then for now. Go test it :)

Q: Why did they deprecate a.out support in linux?
A: Because a nasty coff is bad for your elf.
