A rudimentary [non-interrupt driven] driver for the PS/2 keyboard
is available for use by RedBoot. If a keyboard is plugged in when
the unit is reset, RedBoot will make use of it (and the LCD display).
If you want to use this for a generalized eCos application, you'll
have to write some code to wrap it up as part of a "proper" serial
driver, but it shouldn't be too difficult.
