hehe. i've never heared of xdoom/xquake ported on solaris, but if
there is such thing, then you should look in ints sources. probably X has
a func to do that properly. but i still think that port reading is the
most useful. unfortunately i don't really know how port reading and X can
co-exist peacefuly but almost certain this will mess up the x events
queue. what about linux game devel stuff? there are some guys developing
a game engine for linux (ala directX). they might finished already the
kbd procs.
