Howdy all,

Been trying to hack out keyboard mappings (figure out exactly how  
keyboards work as IO devices) and understand how keyboards are treated  
on multiple levels (by the kernel, by each shell, by the window  
managers, etc.) Anyways, stumbled upon this page and found it pretty  
informative.

These are neat too but not quite as descriptive or awesome:
