but doesn't the keyboard only have 102 keys?? where is the extra argument coming from?? why ...

pretty good, its incredibly different compared to my model M which I bolt modded and removed the mat for EXTRA TACTILITY lol :D

I just found the source of my problems; it was my wiring! I noticed that the keyboard would click every time I jiggled the wires so I used occam's razor and eliminated connection points until I soldered the wires directly to the PCB and now everything is working as it should

EDIT: Now I just have ...

@Hypersphere we have the same model number, 6112883

@swampangel strangely the makefile lists the bootloader size as 1024:
# Boot Section Size in *bytes*
# Teensy halfKay 512
# Teensy++ halfKay 1024
# Atmel DFU loader 4096
# LUFA bootloader 4096
# USBaspLoader 2048
BOOTLOADER_SIZE ?= 1024

running that command gives me the error: ../../tmk_core/rules.mk:547: *** no ldscript for keymap section. Stop.
and if I run it with KEYMAP=kaboom1 I get: make: *** No rule to make target 'obj_ibm4704_usb_rev1_alps_unimap/unimap_kaboom1.o', needed by 'ibm4704_usb_rev1_alps_unimap.elf'. Stop.

well, there is a slight problem with that; apparently the makefile for the converter has the MCU set properly
I also booted into windows and it did recognize the controller as a HID device...

I don't have a bad keyboard do I?

oh sorry, I forgot to mention that I had another teensy that I put pins on, I originally bought these for another project

first I changed the MCU and the bootloader size as such:
MCU = at90usb1287
OPT_DEFS += -DBOOTLOADER_SIZE=1024

then I CD to ~/Desktop/tmk_keyboard-master/keyboard/onekey and ran ...

Looks like the hard part is going to take a bit longer, flashing it and shorting the pins didn't work, all I got was absolute silence

so, I guess, just let me know what you need to look at and ill upload it because I really have no idea what is going wrong
