• Post-installation instructions for X.Org on OpenBSD/macppc
  ----------------------------------------------------------
  
  OpenBSD uses the X.Org X server on macppc.
  
  Accelerated drivers
  -------------------
  
  For many users of X.Org's servers, an xorg.conf file is not needed,
  simply start X, and it will automatically detect and use your
  hardware.  If your hardware is not properly autodetected or supported
  or not supported as you wish, you will have to create a configuration
  file.
  
  The 'r128' and 'ati' drivers are currently known to work on the
  machines with ATI Rage 128 or Radeon cards. The 'nv' driver works for
  machines with nVidia cards, although some modes may experience
  problems.
  
  You need to set machdep.allowaperture to 2 in /etc/sysctl.conf in
  order to be able to use the X.Org accelerated drivers.
  
  
  Unaccelerated, framebuffer driver
  ---------------------------------
  
  The wsfb driver uses whatever graphics mode the console is set to
  (by Mac OS) as a dumb unaccelerated framebuffer in 8 bits per pixel.
  You should be able to use 'startx' or xenodm to start X without further
  configuration.
  
  Mousekeys (Or how to deal with a One Button Mouse)
  --------------------------------------------------
  
  Using the mousekeys feature of Xorg, it is possible to emulate
  button2 and button3, since Apple does not seem to build hardware with
  them. Other mouse operations can also be emulated using the keyboard.
  To see the default key mappings, look at
  /usr/X11R6/share/X11/xkb/compat/mousekeys.
  These are not enabled by default.  It is necessary to bind a key to
  the Pointer_EnableKeys action.  For the PBG4 a good setting for
  this is using the Enter key next to or near the space bar (US keymap).
  This can be bound by using the following xmodmap command.
  --
  xmodmap -e "keysym Mode_switch = Mode_switch Pointer_EnableKeys"
  --
  With xmodmap above run, {:-<shift>-:}<ctrl><enter> (not return) will
  toggle the Pointer_EnableKeys mode allowing the key to be
  used either as a mouse action or as the real key.
  
  For other keyboards/setups, both "Mode_switch" strings in the xmodmap
  command can be changed to another key. xev(1) can be used to determine
  the name associated with a key.
  
  The following is a diff to the mousekeys file which simplifies
  mousekey usage on the PBG4, It could be used with other keyboards,
  this is not specific to the PBG4.  It changes the default mousekey
  behavior of the keypad 0 and keypad Decimal (period) to act as mouse
  button 2 and mouse button 3 respectively.
