lyra3tool
« on: December 09, 2024, 11:37:01 PM »
Hello!

I have the Lyra 3 keyboard adapter from Individual computer and then I have the USB4VC USB to ps2 converter from USB4VC.com. I have connected the "newly" manufactured Amiga USB Keyboard to the USB4VC that is connected to the lyra 3 adapter.

I don't know if the USB4VC USB to ps2 converter has anything to do with my problem or if it is only the lyra3 that is in play here.

The problem I have is that my
"RIGHT_CONTROL"  on the Amiga keyboard seems to be "RIGHT_ALT"
"RIGHT_ALT" seems to be "RIGHT_AMIGA"
"LEFT_ALT" seems to be "LEFT_AMIGA"

The right Amiga key does not seem to respond to anything and the same with the right menu key.

I have tried to use the lyra3tool from aminet, but because of my seemingly dead "Right Amiga key" I can't get this to work.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hello!

it will not work with a plain USB to PS/2 converter, because the keyboard itself must have built in ps/2 protocol and the amiga keyboard is a plain USB protocol keyboard.

I can live with switching the physical ALT keys to the Amiga keys. the layout of a real Amiga keyboard is that way anyway.

What is harder to live with is to then have a Right ALT key and a Right Menu key that is dead keys and then the right Control key as right ALT.
