 :>Description:
 :when installing FreeBSd, I found that no matter what computer i tried it on, you
 : cannot use keyboard adapters, they are fine after installation, just do not go 
 :over well durring. By adapters, i mean, like ps2_>full din, and vise-versa
 : 
 :>How-To-Repeat:
 :try installing freebsd with a keyboard adapter being used, my case, it was a ps2
 : keyboard, with a full-din socket on the MB
 
 
 I have an ATX box which is using PS2 mouse and keyboard, but I only have regular
 PC mouse and keyboard. I use adapter for both mouse and keyboard, and everything
 works fine. The motherboard I have is ASUS KN-97-X for Pentinum-II.
 
 You need to provide more information when you submit a bug report. By guessing,
 you may have a ATX motherboard, which uses PS2 input device connectors.
 Or, you have regular motherboard and try to use PS2 mouse and keyboard?
 
 You state that "like ps2_>full din, and vise-versa" and sound like you tried
 both, which is not very true case.
