- For the keymap, I hear that you don't want the DEL/BS swap, so I was just
- going to provide it for those that wanted to patch it into their own
- kernels. Now from what I have been reading, it sounds like we need to get
- loadable keymaps working to allow dynamic customization, is this correct?
- If the loadable keymaps work now, how are they used? You mention something
- about rc.local below.
