What is the "right" keyboard or mouse for my Mac?

Herb's Mac Stuff FAQ
Almost ANY older Mac keyboard or mouse is usable on almost any older Mac, from the SE to Power Macs. They are connected to what Apple called the ADB port. Check my parts section for such keyboards. Use the images, name or model number to select which keyboard you wish. I simply don't know which keyboard was shipped when with what system; or if your system uses another keyboard. They will all function, each offers features or additional keys which may be useful to you.

Synergy Frequently Asked Questions
No. Synergy is a KM solution not a KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) solution. However, future versions will probably support KVM. Hopefully, this will make synergy suitable for managing large numbers of headless servers.

Will I still be able to use my mouse and keyboard on my system if I have a touchscreen display?

CyberResearch - FAQ
Yes, you will. The touchscreen will occupy one of the serial ports on your PC. You will still be able to use either a serial or PS/2 mouse and also the PS/2 keyboard without any conflicts. Most of our standard backplanes have 2 PICMG slots. Only 1 CPU card can be used. The other unused slot becomes an available ISA slot. We do offer other backplanes that are segmented. These backplanes will support up to 4 CPU cards installed in one system.

How do I use my PS/2 (''mouse port'' or ''keyboard'') mouse?

Frequently Asked Questions for FreeBSD 2.X, 3.X and 4.X
If you are running a post-2.2.5 version of FreeBSD, the necessary driver, psm, is included and enabled in the kernel. The kernel should detect your PS/2 mouse at boot time. If you are running a previous but relatively recent version of FreeBSD (2.1.x or better) then you can simply enable it in the kernel configuration menu at installation time, otherwise later with -c at the boot: prompt. It is disabled by default, so you will need to enable it explicitly.

What is keyboard and mouse "emulation"?

Without emulation, your computer would not recognize that a keyboard and mouse are attached through the KVM switch.

Q.C5- The mouse is moving erratically. What's wrong?

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about XFree86
Most likely, you've specified the wrong protocol for the mouse. Note that newer Logitech mice do not use the Logitech protocol, but instead use Microsoft (or MouseMan) protocol. For earlier versions running under Linux, the solution is to get gpm-1.13 (or later), run it as gpm -t pnp -R, and configure XFree86 for MouseSystems Protocol with /dev/gpmdata as the device.
