Slightly off topic but just for the files and maybe it helps the original poster - while a good old IBM Model M keyboard works perfectly AIX doesn't like a Logitech wireless keyboard at all ( a USB thingie with a PS/2 adaptor, it's ok in OpenFirmware but AIX would switch to a serial console leaving the screen black with just an unmoving/unblinking cursor top left ). hope that helps Michael
