Hi,
xkb-data 0.8-12exp2 is in experimental. The macintosh_old2 version
has been removed from this version, there are only 2 models:
- macintosh_old (old kernels with ADB keycodes)
- macintosh (new kernels with PC keycodes)
But 2 new options are added: apple:badmap and apple:goodmap to change

I find the support for the bcm is somewhat a bit off

Good morning!
I worked on this problem the hole weekend, so
it seems to be a problem with the powerbook itself,
because I used 5 different CD (3.0, 3.1, ubuntu, etc.)
from a friend. He burned it with a plextor premium -
so it can't be the fault of the cds.
I don't know, what to do next!
