In the directory /usr/X11/lib/keyboard is a file "keyboard.config" which
controls which physical keys will be seen by X and which ones will be seen
only by the Display Manager.  See the online manpage for "Xapollo" under the
"-K" option, or refer to the manual "Using the X Window System on Apollo
Workstations", order number 012513-A02.
