Is this a directory that you know should exist, or is it a suggestion of a place that it might be if someone possibly has ported it? The reason I ask, is because no such directory exists on freebsd.cdrom.com under FreeBSD-current/ports. I do have a version running and compiled under NetBSD. The only thing that needs to be changed is the checkKeyboard routine, since it contains some Sun specific calls. I have a hack that would get you going, but would like to come up with a different way of doing it. Send email if you want details or are interested in bouncing some ideas back and forth.
