If I plug out the USB portion, then I cant use the keyboard anymore!
But I will try plugging out the PS/2 section, then send email again.

The funny thing is that this works in Windows and Linux. So how come it
doesnt work in FreeBSD without any physical change? I think this is a bug
in FreeBSD.

Also I wonder if it is possible to use the normal ps/2 keyboard and the
wireless usb keyboard at the same time? This also works in Linux and
Windows. I know that I can change the keyboard in use by changing the
devices from kbd0 to kbd1 etc. But in Windows and Linux both keyboards
work simultaneously without any change.

Thanks
Evren
