Here's part of my (working) /etc/usbd.conf

device  "jhs Buddy (TM) PS/2 Keyboard-PS/2 Mouse - Cypress Semiconductor"
        vendor  0x04b4
        product 0x8328
        release 0x0001
        attach  "kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd1 -l us.unix < /dev/console;/usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap -display laps:0 /home/jhs/public_html/dots/.xmodmap/toshiba.s5100-603.init"
        detach  "kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd0 -l uk.iso < /dev/console;/usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap -display laps:0 /home/jhs/public_html/dots/.xmodmap/english"
        # Adaptor also has a mouse socket, not used as I use a USB mouse.
        #       External keyboard is American layout.
        #       Internal keyboard is English with black keycaps, can't be relabelled.
        # usbd starts before xdm, so xmodmap fails after reboot,
        # but after boot, if adapter is unplugged & replugged it should be OK.
        #       dmesg during attach reports:    device names: ukbd0,ums1
        # devname       "ums[0-9]+"
