The keyboard base device driver (KBDBASE.SYS) is one of the two separated drivers for the keyboard physical device driver. KDBBASE.SYS is referred as the "device-independent driver" that handles the monitors, screen groups, code paging, translation and special needs processing. This device driver communicates any hardware change with the "device-dependent" driver (IBMKBD.SYS) using an IDS (inter-device-driver communication) interface.
- Note
- This is one of the critical drivers for the OS/2 Kernel.
