I am trying to find a PCI-E 1x to 2xPS2 adapter
that actually works.
The only one I could find was
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VB9TD6D
and it was dead on arrival: no power to the
keyboard.
You guys know of one that is Fedora friendly
that actually works?
I too would much rather have a working PCIe card, though I have found USB-to-PS/2
dongles generally more reliable. I haven't bought one in over a decade, so can't
recommend against any in particular that don't work. This card is functionally
worthless too:
<https://www.walmart.com/ip/PCI-E-Dual-Port-PS2-Expansion-Adapter-Card-External-PS2-Device-for-PC/1007125601>
It only works a keyboard after an OS driver loads, so can't be used to get into
BIOS, BBS menu or Grub menu.
It need to work in bios too. My USB dongle will flash
my keyboard very couple of minutes and trash what I am
writing.
