The plug/socket adaptor doesn't actually have any electronics in them, they just rewire the pins from one to the other, misusing the USB connector. The keyboards and mice they came with are dual-function and need an adaptor that specifically suits them. You want to look for keywords like "standalone" or "active" adaptors or converters. Something like how this advertises itself: https://www.amazon.com/SANOXY-USB-Active-Adapter-Electronics/dp/B000I97N1M I have no idea about whether this particular one is any good, but it's a cheap experiment and describes itself in the manner that seems promising. The reviews are mixed, but that could easily be due to the specific keyboards that they're trying to use. I'm kind of surprised someone still has PS/2 keyboard/mouse that they'd like to keep using. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.108.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jan 25 16:17:31 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
