can someone clarify if this type 6 usb keyboard will function correctly with
xorg 6.5.1, ie sun keys enabled, without this patch installed. I have redhat WS
4.0 U0 installed and the keyboard configured as;

Section "InputDevice"

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1
#       Option  "Xleds"         "1 2 3"
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
#       Option  "XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
#       Option  "XkbModel"      "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
#       Option  "XkbModel"      "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#       Option  "XkbLayout"     "de"
# or:
#       Option  "XkbLayout"     "de"
#       Option  "XkbVariant"    "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
#       Option  "XkbOptions"    "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
#       Option  "XkbOptions"    "ctrl:nocaps"
#
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbRules" "sun"
        Option      "XkbModel" "type6"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

With this configuration. I am getting keycodes back, but no keysym's. Should
6.5.1 generate correct keysyms at this point  ( as against the documented hack
http://www.infosun.fmi.uni-passau.de/~nils/type6/ )

Tks,
