HP-UX is peeky for keyboards and mice on PA-RISC
I did not realize i was really lucky everything ran smoothly.
I replaced b2000 with b2600. The problems started with keyboards: the modern genius keyboard with multimedia keys was not recognized by the firmware, the system kept switching to a serial console. Well, i purchased identical old genius keyboard and plugged it in; everything went ok (i took the mouse from the old system) until i upgraded to latest quality pack: the Xhp stopped seeing mouse at all, though ioscan shows it properly in place. I decided it was one of X server patches to blame and uninstalled them one by one until i got the first one from 2005 installation CD - and it did not work either. I tried a few different mice: genius does not work at all and a different a4tech model does, though the wheel is not recognized, only 3 buttons are available. Any ideas which mouse to use to get the wheel supported or how to rollback the patches properly to get my old one working? Please don't ask me to downgrade to 11.11 - it has some important locale features missing and not all software gets updated for it in time.

Re: HP-UX is peeky for keyboards and mice on PA-RISC
HP-UX 11.23 is not a desktop operating system.
You can use it to browse the web, you can install many desktop applications on it, and if you like compiling stuff, you can make it work.
I have never seen a middle mouse button work on any Version of HP-UX direct connect.
As noted your chosen OS is not supported on this hardware.
Best bet is to connect to this system via X Windows from a windows workstation or better from a Linux workstation via gnome-terminal or ssh -X

Re: HP-UX is peeky for keyboards and mice on PA-RISC
it could be one of the usb patches too!
We use original HP mice (2-button plus wheel) for our c-class ws, but of course with 11.11.
Spare P/N is 390938-001 and 395737-001 at the newest c8000.
