Surelly works!:-D

 All you need to do is solder 4 wires on the mobo: data, clock, +5V and ground.

 Put this lines to a regular DIN, mini-DIN (PS/2) socket on the back of a case (original, towerized, wathever) and put the keyboard inside a desktop orig case or a 2000/3000/4000 keyboard case and that's it.:-D

Or just grab an orig 2/3/4k keyboard and wire it correctly.

Aminet helps a lot with this specific "hack".


Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

But anyway you'll need a solution to the kb-reset problem: CTRL+A+A don't work anymore.

But you could try this hack:
