I'm trying to use a simple (cheap) PS/2 keyboard with a laptop which has no PS/2 ports. There are various PS/2 - USB available all over the internet; I bought a cheap one on Ebay. It is a very simple little thing, and I don't think it has any sort of electronics inside, and it doesn't seem to work. The keyboard is not recognized at all, neither in the console nor in X, it doesn't appear in the output of lsusb, and it isn't recognized by MS Windows either. Does anyone know anything about these things? Do they only work with certain types of keyboards? Do I need to configure anything in software? Should I suspect that mine is defective?
