    Hey OldTon, are you still trying to install/enable 2 keyboards?

    @ Alynur
    Yes, that would help me a lot if I knew how
    Right now I pull keyb 1 out and plug keyb 2 in and the other way too of course
    This works , but....but so darn inconvenient, because sometimes I get funny messages ( which I just ignore, as they are gone after a reboot )
    Thanks for remembering me

    From Stack Exchange "Yes, you can connect any number of keyboards simultanously (as long as it's physically possible with your hardware). The "X Input" extension manages multiple input devices, you can use the xinput commandline tool to configure them, and you can also assign them to different "seats" (combinations of keyboard/monitor) or use them alternatively with one monitor."
    I've never used the xinput commandline tool so I can't help you with that.

    Thanks a lot for that
    I will try this out as soon as possible.
    Could take a few days :-)
    Thanks
