> Troika Amy - without legacy ports.

Is it possible to use PS/2 keyboards and mouse with the new Troika Amy board?
What about 3rd party / oem USB to PS/2 adapter?
I had asked the vendor and they said that their product is only for X86 PC, not PowerPC.
Is there any AmigaOS 4 and Linux PowerPC driver for the adapter?

I use a Belkin PS/2->USB adapter on my Mac. So, I'm sure it's possible. No driver is needed.

PS/2 keyboards and mouse? No.
With 3rd party USB to PS2 adaptor, it should do it depends on the host OS USB driver stack.

The NEC USB device supports the USB 2 modes OHCI/UHCI & EHCI which covers all devices on the market.

As part of the compatibility testing of the Amy'05 a number of common PC peripherals will be tested, I will add a generic USB-PS2 adaptor to the list.

Virutally all port adaptors are hardware independent. Whoever told you otherwise is either wrong, or lying. Most likely the former.
