See also the kbd(8) command. In 3.9 at least, there is a kbd-related
section in /etc/rc:

if [ -f /sbin/kbd -a -f /etc/kbdtype ]; then
        kbd `cat /etc/kbdtype`

I wonder if that shouldn't really say

if [ -x /sbin/kbd -a -f /etc/kbdtype ]; then
 /sbin/kbd `cat /etc/kbdtype`
fi

Also, what's up with all the backticking?  What shell is running the
/etc/rc script?  Wouldn't it be "better" to say

 /sbin/kbd $(</etc/kbdtype)
