Keyboard is supported in the BIOS and DOS. Acts like a Type 6 USB keyboard.but the Sun specific keys can be remapped for use in Windows. Keyboard layout can be changed: caps lock/control and escape/tilde can be switched so both PC and Unix style Type 5 keyboards can be set to your preferred layout.

Hi, anybody still interested on the subject? I tried to do a bus snoop with USBTrace under Win7-64 with a SUN Type 7 keyboard and it seems that the keyboard (endpoint 0x81) is sending the scan codes to the host, but the default Win driver ignores them. At least we are sure that the scancodes come out correctly. I doubt there is any specific driver out there so we may try: • a subsitute keyboard driver project, something using some USB microcontroller devkit like Silabs or Arduino; • a usb bus snoop program to intercept the special codes before Win driver and to trigger some action via AutoHotKey; •??

From a layout perspective, they are exactly the same. (I have both a Type 6 US layout, and a Type 7 US layout, I put them side by side to compose this reply and not make any mistakes). From a design/construction, there are subtle differences, first of all the Sun Type 6 is GREY, the type 7 is all WHITE. Second the Type 6 lower side (near your hands) ends with a curve. The Type 7 ends abruptly (more square, if you prefer).

And perhaps the most noticeable of all, the Type 7 sports a 'Sun-Oracle' logo exactly in the middle (above F8) while the Type 6 had the traditional Sun Microsystems logo at the top-right corner. The icing on the cake for the Type 7 is its internal USB hub, with two USB female ports at the top, which the Type 6 lacked. Ekahau site survey 2 1 crack. The Sun keyboards are available in two basic layouts for a particular language, the UNIX layout and the PC Layout. In bahamat's photos below, the top photo of the Sun Type 6 has the PC layout and, below, the Sun Type 7 has the UNIX layout. @aissacf is correct; the Type 6 and 7 keyboards with the UNIX layout are exactly the same and the Type 6 and 7 keyboards with the PC layout are also exactly the same. If requested, I can take photos of the keyboard I'm using at this very moment, a Sun Type 7 PC layout. – Jan 5 '16 at 12:18.
