Hmm, why do you need (sh*tty) PC-compatible keycodes for a keaboard that
barely resembles a PC keyboard? AFAIK, XFree86 has appropriate LK201
keymaps -- see "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/*/digital/*".
Just set up your "Keyboard" section of XF86Config correctly. E.g.
(completely untested):
Section "Keyboard"
XkbKeycodes "digital/lk(lk201)"
XkbSymbols "digital/us(us)"
XkbGeometry "digital/lk(lk201)"
EndSection
It might be nice to add these values to Xkb rules somewhere
("/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/digital"?) one day, so you don't need to
specify components separately for default values, but I'm not sure our
XFree86 support is stable enough to consider it now.
