Dejan, you ask me what problems do i have with xorg and the keyboard, for that i prefer to start one new post, because the subject is not correct for my other problem. Now for this post, thanks for all the info, i was thinking that we could install xorg or xfree86 from packages on 5.4-Release. Iam going to test first Chuck tip, next build xfree86 from ports, but first let see i can make my kbd works with xorg. Thanks to all. Every day we learn something new.
