so i have an old 90s Compaq keyboard that i bought a $5 adapter for so I can use it on my Early 2009 Mac mini.
Anyways, I can get caps lock and scroll lock and num lock to work (get them to light up at the very least)
but it wont type at all. I will try ubuntu off usb stick to see but for now i always use mac os..

Re: PS/2 to USB [help]
I looked it up and it's apparently because Macs never used PS/2 keyboards, they used ABD keyboards, and odds are the 90's keyboard doesn't work with the adapter anyway because it's not a dual use keyboard.
Try a more expensive adapter?
