AKBD(4)			    Kernel Interfaces Manual		       AKBD(4)

NAME
       akbd -- ADB Keyboard Driver

SYNOPSIS
       To  compile  this  driver into the kernel, place	the following lines in
       your kernel configuration file:

	     device adb

DESCRIPTION
       The akbd	driver provides	support	for all	keyboards attached to the  Ap-
       ple Desktop Bus (ADB).

HARDWARE
       Devices supported by the	akbd driver include:

          Apple Extended Keyboard
          Apple Keyboard II
          Apple iBook Keyboard
          Apple PowerBook Keyboard

EVENTS
       The  akbd driver	sends events to	devd(8)	for the	following events under
       the PMU system:

          Power button	- Button subsystem, pressed type.

SYSCTL VARIABLES
       The akbd	driver supports	the following sysctl variable for  configuring
       the Fn keys:

       dev.akbd.%d.fn_keys_function_as_primary
	       Set  the	Fn keys	to be their F-key type as default.  A value of
	       0 causes	the F-keys keys	to work	as special keys	by  default  (
	       abtn(4))	 and a value of	1 sets them to behave as F-keys	by de-
	       fault.
