Ummm... fwiw, these are *not* PS/2. They happen to use a DIN-7 plug, as do SGI keyboards and mice, but the pinout is totally different, and plugging Sun and SGI peripherals together with PS/2 stuff is probably a good way to fry some hardware. At the least, the keyboard and mouse won't work on a PS/2 system, even if they're not permanently damaged. (I know that's not what's going on in this thread, just fair warning.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
