AKBD(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual AKBD(4)

akbd —
ADB Keyboard Driver

To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device adb

The akbd driver provides support for all keyboards attached to the Apple Desktop Bus (ADB).

Devices supported by the akbd driver include:

  • Apple Extended Keyboard
  • Apple Keyboard II
  • Apple iBook Keyboard
  • Apple PowerBook Keyboard

The akbd driver sends events to devd(8) for the following events under the PMU system:

  • Power button - Button subsystem, pressed type.

The akbd driver supports the following sysctl variable for configuring the Fn keys:
dev.akbd.%d.fn_keys_function_as_primary
Set the Fn keys to be their F-key type as default. A value of 0 causes the F-keys keys to work as special keys by default ( abtn(4)) and a value of 1 sets them to behave as F-keys by default.

abtn(4), adb(4), cuda(4), pmu(4)

The akbd device driver appeared in FreeBSD 8.0.

The akbd driver was written by Nathan Whitehorn <nwhitehorn@FreeBSD.org>.
December 3, 2009 FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE
