Hi,

	I need to add a keypad to a product in development that will co-exist
with the standard keyboard.  It will be a fairly dumb pad capable of generating
the equivalent of function keys F1 thru F8.  The desired goals are:

  invisible to the syscons driver (and thus X11).
  works in parallel (ie. simultaniously) with the keyboard.

	Looking over the kbd/atkbd/atkbdc/syscons source I havn't yet "seen"
a clear strategy for cleanly hooking into the existing code.  Any suggestions?
I also could use a pointer to any docs out there that describe the structure
behind this new bus organization, and the keyboard drivers in particular!

tia,
