Some can do that yes but not all, the reverse capability is simply not a standard feature on KVMs (just like how some can also switch USB, audio and networking features). So saying that somone should just go out and buy any KVM switch would be wrong.

KVM- One keyboard, one mouse, one monitor and up to many many computers
OP- Multiple keyboards, one PC.

Its the exact opposite.

I for one LOVE the chinese (in a non-dirty manly way)! You do some great production work, you food is great (well, the food that does not smell like wet dog or taste like sea-weed), you have some really nice old architecture and i think you can all be very social if you want to (been in the tourist ...

Just check out the PS/2 specification as to what pin is Vcc, clock, data and ground. Measure (with for example a multimeter) what pin goes to what color wire and write it down;

Sometimes the end justifies the means... There's only one thing better than having a custom job done on anything and thats a custom job that you completely did yourself!

Wheres the fun in that?

I prefer good old sandblasting over toxis chemicals any day. Imagine where that crap's gonna go after you're finished with it.

Oh yes i fully agree with you there, blasting will always be better.... But you just cannot do that without the proper hardware, paintstipper on the other hand is easy as ...

Yeah, thats either a reaction like you get with different types of paint re dissolving each-other or if you didn't de-grease properly (always do that before AND after sanding).

Its a metal case you have there right? Heres my advise for the best result;
1) Buy some proper chemical paint stripper ...

Switching PS/2 devices on the fly should be possible if they are similar enough hardware-wise. However, i would do kinda what Ripster suggested but instead of 2 blue cubes i would just hook the most used keyboard up via PS/2 (or whoever needs NKRO roll-over the most, dunno if your little girl ...

Arduino Leonardo + USB host shield would still be the easiest (aka no-soldering required) solution right?

What's next, Gold-plated usb-cables has faster NKRO than standard USB-cables ?

You mean something like this?

Withdrawal can be bad but most of it should be over in 2~3 weeks. Caffeine like anything should be enjoyed in moderation, i used to drink 3~4 cups of coffee and half a gallon of Coca Cola a day (not good for your teeth i can tell you that) and i completely quit on the cola part bout a year ago but ...

Well.... it would open up quite a world for DVORAK users who swap computers alot and still like to carry their fav board along (regular USB non-DVORAK board ofc). Would also make a great keystroke-logger (oh my) and like i said it adds wireless possibilities! Granted, the market would not be very ...

Zomg, i haven't even heard about Leonardo yet... That's a wicked little board!! Its indeed just like teensy's physically bigger brother! Hmmm, tempting to get one of those for some playtime 8-)

AT90USB647 would be fine too, but seems even more rare than the '1287 ...

Oh well.... all joking aside; WHEN AM I GONNA GET MY PIE!!! Erm.. Pi i meant ofc

Has anybody here played a bit with the GPIO pins yet?

Thats what ripster said

Well yeah, would need quite a bit of work actually but at least it has something very close to your beloved AT90USB128x

Oh that's a neat layout, i love that spacebar only on bottom row thing it has going on. Dont think id like that Break next to the backspace tho..... and ofc id have it in Qwerty but thats whatever youre used to.

how good are your hack n slash modding skills?

Hmmm.... this is getting interesting.. im keeping my eye on this thread

Looks good!

Not sure how good the Arduino Uno client USB port is... presumably OK?


Well as far as i understand it Teensy still beats most 'true' arduino platforms when it comes to USB hardware emulation both in simplicity and functionality. But making any Arduino act like a keyboard should be ...

I really should get into this whole Arduino business, looks like a lot of fun!

Would the board below combined with an UNO for example be able to 'intercept' USB mumbo-jumbo from a keyboard and do some switcheroo magic to do remapping thingies;

I love it when people i know throw water over their electronics. Two weeks ago my neighbor went swimming with his cellphone in his pocket, it ofc went bust and even when i offered to repair it he wouldnt have it and bought a new one. Luckily i could buy a new daughter-board ($13 shipped) so now i ...

Thats a great little vid!

The wife and i enjoy a game of F-Zero X on the N64 from time to time. Theres just some honest simple charm to vintage games that the more modern ones lack for some reason.

But then Holland is really geared towards bikers.

It kinda is yeah, the city i had to go through for my previous job had a really nice cycling-only road network that did not share any intersections with regular roads (it would go under 'actual' roads where needed)... so you could really keep your ...

Luckily insurance is a bit cheaper here in the Netherlands than in the UK (i got 2 cars and 3 motorcycles atm) but still, petrol prices are kinda crazy atm so cycling is a great alternative.

And having showers at work is great and all, but if you have to start early (early as in 4:45 AM on my ...
