Sorry, I can't get my hands on a PS/2 keyboard on short notice (these
things are getting to be hard to come by).
I did get my hands on a second-hand PS/2 mouse. It behaves as jerkily and
imprecisely as you expect and old, worn PS/2 mouse to behave, but it keeps
on working. Unfortunately, the USB keyboard took that as its cue to start
behaving badly. after about five to ten minutes of use, it dies. In fact,
it looks like something is cutting the power to the relevant USB pin
because even the LED lights die. USB Mass Storage devices don't seem to
have this problem.
When my new keyboard & mouse arrive from Amazon I will try other
combinations.
One might think that this is a problem only for the dwindling number of
desktop users. But a fundamental flaw in the USB stack or the input_server
could come back to haunt us later.
