Professional is a bit expensive. Lite 2 is just fine to
my needs.

They are all usb models nowadays. Fashion, just as wide
screen monitors are. My plan, when kb arrives, is to put
adapter to the end of cable and connect it to ps/2 jack.
Manufacturer has a wiki page, where he ponders against
usb -> ps/2 correction. That was the starting point for
my original post. For what reason are they against?

Btw, have you changed something in node configuration to
match 65 key kb? How it goes in xorg.conf file in line
for driver, which is "kbd" for ps/2 kb? I disabled hald
whith those 3 lines:
Section "Server Flags"
        Option  "DontZap"               "off"
        Option  "AllowEmptyInput"       "off"
        Option  "AutoAddDevices"        "false"
EndSection
Best regards
