Finally got the kb. As almost everyone anticipated,
it refused to work connected to ps/2 adapter with
usb -> ps/2. I had to recompile the kernel and put
usb code back.
So far, so good. Thanks all for support.

Not.
The old _ISA-based_ PS/2 is dead. PS/2 interfaces, provided by other

Hear, hear.
Not to get off-track, but I want to make you aware:
There are known complexities with FreeBSD and USB-based keyboard

Should do if running through adapter fails.
I always remove usb stack from kernel. Have to

All newer HH keuboards are usb ones. Manufacturer doesn't

Is there any reason not to do that on amd64?

Dear all!
I consider buying new keyboard and found happy hacker lite 2
model suiting fine. Is there someone on the list with expe-

65 key layout. Also, how xorg.conf has to look like in this
situation?
