We're considering going to X instead of SunView, and I've
run into a problem: if the X server dies unexpectly, the
associated keyboard is left in some strange state that renders
it unusable. This is especially bothersome when it happens on the
server. I have tried the fixKbd program that was recently posted
to this group, but it did not appear to have any affect. Does
anyone know how I can reset the keyboard short of rebooting?
