Indigo keyboard woes
Still having issues getting my 2 Indigos up and running, as both cannot connect to my non-PS/2 SGI keyboard and therefore fail the power-on test. On boot the 3 LEDs on the keyboard light up, and when I press a key the keyboard makes a sound, so the keyboard itself (and cable) is partially functioning. I've connected the mouse both on the left and right side of the keyboard, and disconnected the mouse altogether with no result. Unfortunately I don't have another non-PS/2 keyboard to test with. 

Has anyone had any luck with the PS/2 adapter board described here and here? I'm not sure I want to go down this road, as it would require me to purchase the parts, a PIC programmer, and put it all together (too many projects underway at the moment). 

Any other ideas?
