History

since the keyboard have real switches under the blind panels (where NOTIS keys normally are), I decided to test those switches. First I connected the keyboard to a FreeBSD machine with a real PS/2 port. But none of the "blinded" switches produce a code (tested both in console and with xev). Next I connected the keyboard to a laptop running Debian 9 with a usb-to-PS/2 adapter. Same here - none of the "blinded" switches produce a code in xev.

I got a cable (ps/2 to AT (DIN plug) plus one AT to ps/2 adapter from my friend. Tested the keyboard with a usb to ps/2 adapter - the keyboard works.
