INPUT_KEYBOARD
 * Input core configuration
 * Input core configuration
 * (on/off) "Keyboards" if EMBEDDED || !X86
 * default y
 * Say Y here, and a list of supported keyboards will be displayed. This option doesn't affect the kernel.
 * If unsure, say Y.

INPUT_KEYBOARD


 * Option: KEYBOARD_ATKBD
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "AT keyboard" if !X86_PC
 * default y
 * select SERIO
 * select SERIO_LIBPS2
 * select SERIO_I8042 if X86_PC
 * select SERIO_GSCPS2 if GSC
 * Say Y here if you want to use a standard AT or PS/2 keyboard. Usually you'll need this, unless you have a different type keyboard (USB, ADB or other). This also works for AT and PS/2 keyboards connected over a PS/2 to serial converter.
 * If unsure, say Y.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called atkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_ATKBD_HP_KEYCODES
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "Use HP keyboard scancodes"
 * depends on PARISC && KEYBOARD_ATKBD
 * default y
 * Say Y here if you have a PA-RISC machine and want to use an AT or PS/2 keyboard, and your keyboard uses keycodes that are specific to PA-RISC keyboards.
 * Say N if you use a standard keyboard.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_ATKBD_RDI_KEYCODES
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "Use PrecisionBook keyboard scancodes"
 * depends on KEYBOARD_ATKBD_HP_KEYCODES
 * default n
 * If you have an RDI PrecisionBook, say Y here if you want to use its built-in keyboard (as opposed to an external keyboard).
 * The PrecisionBook has five keys that conflict with those used by most AT and PS/2 keyboards. These are as follows:
 * PrecisionBook   Standard AT or PS/2
 * F1              F12   Left Ctrl        Left Alt   Caps Lock        Left Ctrl   Right Ctrl       Caps Lock   Left             102nd key (the key to the right of Left Shift)
 * If you say N here, and use the PrecisionBook keyboard, then each key in the left-hand column will be interpreted as the corresponding key in the right-hand column.
 * If you say Y here, and use an external keyboard, then each key in the right-hand column will be interpreted as the key shown in the left-hand column.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_SUNKBD
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Sun Type 4 and Type 5 keyboard"
 * select SERIO
 * Say Y here if you want to use a Sun Type 4 or Type 5 keyboard, connected either to the Sun keyboard connector or to an serial (RS-232) port via a simple adapter.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called sunkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_LKKBD
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "DECstation/VAXstation LK201/LK401 keyboard"
 * select SERIO
 * Say Y here if you want to use a LK201 or LK401 style serial keyboard. This keyboard is also useable on PCs if you attach it with the inputattach program. The connector pinout is described within lkkbd.c.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called lkkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_LOCOMO
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "LoCoMo Keyboard Support"
 * depends on SHARP_LOCOMO && INPUT_KEYBOARD
 * Say Y here if you are running Linux on a Sharp Zaurus Collie or Poodle based PDA
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called locomokbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_XTKBD
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "XT keyboard"
 * select SERIO
 * Say Y here if you want to use the old IBM PC/XT keyboard (or compatible) on your system. This is only possible with a parallel port keyboard adapter, you cannot connect it to the keyboard port on a PC that runs Linux.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called xtkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_NEWTON
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Newton keyboard"
 * select SERIO
 * Say Y here if you have a Newton keyboard on a serial port.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called newtonkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_CORGI
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Corgi keyboard"
 * depends on PXA_SHARPSL
 * default y
 * Say Y here to enable the keyboard on the Sharp Zaurus SL-C7xx series of PDAs.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called corgikbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_SPITZ
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Spitz keyboard"
 * depends on PXA_SHARPSL
 * default y
 * Say Y here to enable the keyboard on the Sharp Zaurus SL-C1000, SL-C3000 and Sl-C3100 series of PDAs.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called spitzkbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_MAPLE
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Maple bus keyboard"
 * depends on SH_DREAMCAST && MAPLE
 * Say Y here if you have a DreamCast console running Linux and have a keyboard attached to its Maple bus.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called maple_keyb.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_AMIGA
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "Amiga keyboard"
 * depends on AMIGA
 * Say Y here if you are running Linux on any AMIGA and have a keyboard attached.
 * To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called amikbd.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_HIL_OLD
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "HP HIL keyboard support (simple driver)"
 * depends on GSC
 * default y
 * The "Human Interface Loop" is a older, 8-channel USB-like controller used in several Hewlett Packard models. This driver was adapted from the one written for m68k/hp300, and implements support for a keyboard attached to the HIL port, but not for any other types of HIL input devices like mice or tablets. However, it has been thoroughly tested and is stable.
 * If you want full HIL support including support for multiple keyboards, mices and tablets, you have to enable the "HP System Device Controller i8042 Support" in the input/serio submenu.


 * Option: KEYBOARD_HIL
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off/module) "HP HIL keyboard support"
 * depends on GSC
 * default y
 * select HP_SDC
 * select HIL_MLC
 * select SERIO
 * The "Human Interface Loop" is a older, 8-channel USB-like controller used in several Hewlett Packard models. This driver implements support for HIL-keyboards attached to your machine, so normally you should say Y here.
