This is another PS/2 USB adapter that discards special characters when this button is held down. "Ctrl-P" to move up one line in Emacs starts throwing "p" characters in my document. Key.

This thing is coming back and I'm sticking with the Adesso ADP-PU21 which I borrowed from work and it works significantly better for me - I've had one crash a week compared to the IOGear which hiccups for 5 minutes.

I called tech support and they didn't know how to fix the problem. This is the only USB device that does this for me (works from the onboard USB port but not

These are PS2 models only. I ordered several to have my 4 port KVM (green with 4 cables built in). One of them turned out to be defective. The symptom was that the computer reported it as an unknown device. Revain promptly replaced him at her expense and all is well.
