  I'm trying to install microwindows in my ARM-Assabet  platform but I'm
having some problems to make it work

  I have read the documentation of microwindows but I didn't find out
how can I install it correctly.

  My problem seems to be with the keyboard. How do I configure correctly
the keyboard of microwindows?

Rafael,

unless you do really have a keyboard attached to your assabet, configure
it to have no keyboard. i.e. NOKBD = Y . For the mouse, i set IPAQMOUSE
= Y .

  I thought I could use the serial console to emulate one.

Not unless you actually have a serial keyboard attached to the port. 

But you bring up an interesting concept.  Is there ever any time that it 
would be desirable to have the serial console be the keyboard input?  Is it 
worth the pain and suffering to stick a driver in that would do that?

It might be interesting to look at how the old Sun stuff works- on the old
Sparcstations both the serial ports and the keyboard/mouse port are a pair
of Z8530 SCCs, so the serial driver (drivers/sbus/char/zs.c) has to be
able to supply keyboard and mouse input too.

  I tried to compile it that way (it was suggested somewhere in the
documentation) but I couldn't  because of some objects related to devmouse
that couldn't be solved.

  Now I can't reproduce the compilation (I'm far away from my developing
host) but tomorrow I will send the output to see if someone knows what I'm
doing wrong.

  I have discovered my problem of compilation.
  I activated IPAQMOUSE in the config file but a space after the 'Y' confused
make.

  The TouchPad is not calibrated and the movement is totally inverted.
  Does someone knows how to calibrate it,
