[ubuntu-za] No PS2 keyboard

[Reenen Laurie]

Can't you just borrow a USB keyboard first?

I second the comment on Yodata.  I've got a Yodata PS/2 keyboard.  After
a month a lot of the letter have worn off and after dropping the
keyboard half the keys fell off and I had to figure where they all went.
I wouldn't surprise me if the keyboard was the problem.

I have talked with the smart guys at Mecer and it is definitely F2.

The confusion about "Enable Legacy USB" is a red herring. 

Mecer suggested that my YoData keyboard might be a problem. So I went
out to buy a common or garden normal USB keyboard. But you must remember
that we are living in Modimolle and here we can buy any number of
wireless keyboard + mouse sets for R450+, but not a single common or
garden USB keyboard attached to the PC by a cable for normal keyboard
prices.

Luckily I am going to the Big Smoke this weekend and should be able to
buy one there.
