I have some info about the Sun keyboards in the FAQ already (question
19), and I just put a reference to xev & xkeycaps as well.

Did you try xkeycaps to see if it knows what it is? I would have
expected xev to work as well though...
Anyone out there using a Sun box w/ a type 5 keyboard have anything to
say? Also, I remember some recent discussions on this list about the
Sun type 5 keyboards - try searching the archives for 'type 5' and see
if it comes back with anything relevant.

I imagine it would. When I get a chance, I'll do it, but it may not
be before the first official release, as I have to start limiting what
new stuff goes in so I can actually get it out the door sometime
soon...

I tried quickly to reproduce this when you reported it the other day,
but couldn't. Anyone else out there seeing this?

Hm. Interesting. I'll try and investigate this (it may be related to
some cleanup in the keybinding stuff that I wanted to look into
anyways).
