Re: suggestions for /dev/tty2 ?

I'm very glad to see the R5 keys are still there (It's a pity that other MT3 sets don't have those)! - Please correct the legend on numpad Enter (R5): legend is upside down in round 1 and 2 - more consistent positioning of the legends in general - especially in the International Kit - and here espec...

Re: [WTT] MT3 /dev/tty Triumph: 2.75u SHIFT

Hey Adrian,
Thank you very much for the hint. Unfortunately the extra mods don't contain the 2.75u Shift, but I'm always grateful for any information concerning sources for /dev/tty kits.

Re: 029 Keyboards on eBay...and possibly an apology...

Well done, AJ!

I would be very interested to see the results of your restoration. It would be great, if you could post a few pictures here, when you're done.

Re: Finally a proper case for the Vortex ViBE

Thanks. It's always an honour if one's pictures are used as banner, of course.
In case of the double picture - maybe the cable on only one of the keyboards is a bit disturbing? Maybe this would be better?

In case there are some, who are not already fed up with my ViBE pictures ..... Because I'm very happy with my ViBE in a M0110A case, I wanted to treat my work keyboard in the same way and recently acquired a second M0110A keyboard. As I said, I had grown very fond of my accidental marble effect, tha...

Re: Post your keyboard/keycaps!

That's true, but the size of the umlauts wouldn't have bothered me, because they are too small on the IBM Model F XT as well. And if IBM does it, it's ok. :D

Ah ...... no, that's just a very, VERY bold circumflex accent. :lol:
What I mean is the umlaut "U", which should be "Ü", but here they printed the lowercase version "ü". :roll:

Re: MX blacks: random impressions

Very nice! Concerning the distracting LED: I've simply covered the slits under the left side of the space bar with black tape on all of my Vortex boards. (And on the right side I used clear tape - to prevent any dirt getting into it.)

Re: MX blacks: random impressions

@vometia: It seems the Race 3 is quite infamous for riped out stems (although I myself had no problem with mine). It is also well-known for the fact that the screws are actually not over-tightened, but they simply used screws one size too small! So with patience you should be able to pull/jiggle the...

Re: Computer randomly restarting when gaming

In my case it was a bad ram module. I had 4 x 4 GB modules and by swaping them and leaving at least one of them out at a time, I found the bad one. Now I have only 12 GB instead of 16, but everything is running stable again.

Re: IBM 5251 Beamspring Xwhatsit converter key mapping problem help.

I would check, if the connector of the xwhatsit is lined up correctly with the pcb. The connector is wider than necessary. So it can be attached too far to the left or right. If this happens it can short two or more contacts, which might have such a strange effect.

Re: House mites (Glycyphagus domesticus) - Anyone else had them?

I don't think you're a freak and I sympathise with you.
The thing is: I (and maybe a lot of others) am at the moment convinced, that I'm not affected and want it to remain that way. So I don't want to start looking and - on the contrary - would like to forget everything about it. :mrgreen:
