But I remember an adaptor coming w/ my USB-mouse which allowed the mouse to be plugged into the PS/2 port. This was just a dumb piece of hardware which made the connectors fit. Nothing more. When using this 'adaptor', the mouse itself noticed that it had to act like a PS/2 mouse. Basically, I think USB and PS/2 are two completely different things. So unless either your keyboard can also work as an USB keyboard or you're using an active adaptor which can 'translate' between the USB- and the PS/2-protocol (don't know if there is such thing), I guess you're out of luck. I might be wrong, though. > Once I plug it i noticed blanking leds on (one time as in normal case) > it and getting this: > > Jun 16 02:18:45 paranoia kernel: uhub_explore: status change hub=1 port=2 > Jun 16 02:18:46 paranoia kernel: uhub2: port 2 reset failed > Jun 16 02:18:46 paranoia kernel: uhub_explore: status change hub=1 port=2 > > Don't know what those mean.
