Quite some time ago, I posted about a problematic PS2-USB converter that I used to connect an old PS2-connector keyboard to my laptop dock, where the keyboard wouldn't be recognized at boot unless I unplugged and reconnected it. Well, I've recently figured out (partly by obtaining a converter from a different vendor) that the converters both work correctly when plugged into a USB port that's physically on my Dell Latitude laptop - but they have issues and require a reconnect cycle when plugged into the docking station for the laptop. (It took a long time to figure this out, because *of course* you plug this sort of stuff into the docking station specifically so you don't have to plug it in every morning). So obviously, it isn't the converter that is the problem, but the docking station is doing "something stupid". Anybody have suggestions on figuring out what it's doing wrong?
