Greetings, Is there any way of connecting a PS/2 keyboard via a serial port? (I have an adaptor.)
Reason.. On a laptop, I have a PS/2 keyboard connected to the PS/2 port, and a PS/2 Mouse (Logitech) connected to a serial port via a D9 to PS/2 adaptor. The mouse needs replacing, and I've looked a a friends USB Logitech optical mouse (M/N M-BD58), which works in a PS/2 port via a USB -> PS/2 adaptor that comes with the mouse. The combination of USB -> PS/2 -> D9 doesn't work.. I suspect it's because the mouse is expecting power (or something). So.. what I would like to do is change the PS/2 keyboard to the serial port (if it's possible) and run the mouse on the PS/2. [The best solution would be to get USB working under potato.] Paul -- Paul Schulz, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Foursticks Systems Pty Ltd, http://www.foursticks.com.au 2/259 Glen Osmond Road, FREWVILLE South Australia 5063 Phone +61 8 8338 5500, Fax +61 8 8338 5511, Mob +61 401 981 301
