We are going to end up doing a lot of damage to the real code as is, I've
been
busy with other things for a while, but just looking at the FreeBSD code has
reminded
me of just how far we have come. It also reminds me of just how much further
we need to go

It's working quite well for me, and I like the fact that
it is scriptable so you can do whatever you want, e.g.
create your own menus and so on. (Admittedly FORTH is
not the most intuitive language to program in, but you

The problem with USB keyboards was fixed in FreeBSD
recently. Since DragonFly bascially shares the same
loader, maybe it's time to sync it to FreeBSD.
Can you point me to a specific commit(s) ?

I'm sorry, I only remember that the problem was
I'll try FBSD8 and see if my keyboard works.

I'm pretty sure the FreeBSD fix was the real-mode loader fix which
we've already incorporated in master (and I also think 2.4.1 but I'm
not sure).

anyone working on bringing in the new FreeBSD USB code or maybe one from
other BSDs? How difficult would it be? Lets dicuss.

Matt,
Hows it going with getting the non-profit status for DragonFly? It'd be
great if any financial contributions would also be tax deductable.
I was looking at doing this a while ago, though I put it off because of
job searching. I'll see if I can start again after the holidays. We do

I've suggested this a long time ago, and I've also provided some
people with guidance on how to do it, as I've been in contact with the
HPS, the author of usb4bsd.
The main point here is that his i4b repo contains usb4bsd and a
userland wrapper for it. Hence usb4bsd can be elegantly ported to
