Well, I'm not _too_ sure, but from what I saw in X sources, it
internaly converts it into mediumraw anyway, and conversion is done in
such way that if you feed it with mediumraw directly, it will not hurt.

Ugh. How does it work with linux? drivers/char/keyboard.c has
assumption of <128 characters... drivers/sbus/sunkbd.c has that
assumption, also. And I've strong feeling that we should merge those
two sources... Sparc has goodies we don't have, and i386 layer is
cleaner as lowlevel is separated.
