Subject: Keyboard problems with SuSE 7.0 (SPARC) on Ultra 10

    I have a Sun Ultra 10 workstation with an Ultra II/333Mhz and 256MB of
    RAM with a Type 6 keyboard.

    I was able to install SuSE 7.0 without a problem, but the moment I hit
    the login screen, when I try to type any characters, the letters from
    the key on the right gets sent (ie: when I press `F', I get `G'... or
    when I press `~', I get a backspace character). The keyboard works like
    normal at the bootup screen and to the text login process... it worked
    fine in setup as well.

    Could somebody provide some insights for me? I'm a definite novice at
    Linux and Solaris, but I have used FreeBSD for quite some time.

    Thanks
