NAME

       kbd - Keyboard input driver

SYNOPSIS

       Section "InputDevice"
	 Identifier "idevname"
	 Driver "kbd"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION

       kbd  is	an  XFree86  input driver for keyboards.  The driver supports the standard OS-provided keyboard interface, but these are currently
       only available to this driver module for Linux and BSD.	This driver is experimental, but will soon replace the built-in keyboard driver.

       The kbd driver functions as a keyboard input device, and may be used as the X server's core keyboard.

CONFIGURATION DETAILS

       Please refer to XF86Config(5x) for general configuration details and for options that can be used with all  input  drivers.   This  section
       only covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       The following driver Options are supported:

       Option "Device" "string"
	      Specify the keyboard device.  Default: the OS's default console keyboard input source.

       Option "Protocol" "string"
	      Specify the keyboard protocol.  Valid protocol types include:

		   Standard, Xqueue.

	      Not all protocols are supported on all platforms.  Default: "Standard".

       Option "AutoRepeat" "delay rate"
	      sets  the  auto  repeat  behaviour  for  the keyboard.  This is not implemented on all platforms.  delay is the time in milliseconds
	      before a key starts repeating.  rate is the number of times a key repeats per second.  Default: "500 30".

       Option "XLeds" "ledlist"
	      makes the keyboard LEDs specified in ledlist available for client use instead of their traditional function (Scroll Lock, Caps  Lock
	      and Num Lock).  The numbers in the list are in the range 1 to 3.	Default: empty list.

       Option "XkbRules" "rules"
	      specifies  which	XKB  rules  file  to  use for interpreting the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant, and XkbOptions settings.  Default:
	      "xfree86" for most platforms, but "xfree98" for the Japanese PC-98 platforms.

       Option "XkbModel" "modelname"
	      specifies the XKB keyboard model name.  Default: "pc101" for most platforms, but	"pc98"	for  the  Japanese  PC-98  platforms,  and
	      "pc101_sol8x86" for Solaris 8 on x86.

       Option "XkbLayout" "layoutname"
	      specifies the XKB keyboard layout name.  This is usually the country or language type of the keyboard.  Default: "us" for most plat-
	      forms, but "nec/jp" for the Japanese PC-98 platforms.

       Option "XkbVariant" "variants"
	      specifies the XKB keyboard variant components.  These can be used to enhance the keyboard layout details.  Default: not set.

       Option "XkbOptions" "options"
	      specifies the XKB keyboard option components.  These can be used to enhance the keyboard behaviour.  Default: not set.

       Some other XKB-related options are available, but they are incompatible with the ones listed above and are not recommended, so they are not
       documented here.
