Comment 7 for bug 299727

Forwarding this bug from Ubuntu reporter River Tarnell:

(Looks like maybe xkb_keycodes has types 4, 5, and 6 but not 7?)

I use a Sun Type 7 UNIX-layout USB keyboard. X detects the keyboard:

 (II) config/hal: Adding input device Sun USB Keyboard
 (**) Sun USB Keyboard: always reports core events
 (**) Sun USB Keyboard: Device: "/dev/input/event2"
 (II) Sun USB Keyboard: Found keys
 (II) Sun USB Keyboard: Configuring as keyboard
 (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Sun USB Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
 (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev"
 (**) Sun USB Keyboard: xkb_rules: "evdev"
 (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105"
 (**) Sun USB Keyboard: xkb_model: "pc105"
 (**) Option "xkb_layout" "us"
 (**) Sun USB Keyboard: xkb_layout: "us"

But it wrongly detects it as a standard pc105 US keyboard. This means some keys don't work (e.g. Meta becomes Super, Compose becomes Menu, etc.). The correct layout for this keyboard is "us+sun_vndr/usb(sun_usb)". Setting this with "setxkbmap -layout" makes the keyboard behave as expected.
