Description: This is the basic (cheapo) Labtec Wireless KB and wireless optical mouse combination, single receiver box, 2 x PS/2 style outputs. Everything seems to work just fine, even the scroll wheel works OK. I've set the mouse up as an "intellimouse explorer (ps/2)" although I did have to adjust it's sensitivity in the control centre on Kde.

I am currently testing this with Mdk 10.1 but may change.

Overall this works a treat, as I have never used one before found I had to do nothing.

Leads plug into your PS/2 jacks then a base station transmits to the cordless k/b and mouse.

2) However, there is a delay in everything working that you may need to watch.....once booted into a gui you can change the sensitivities but I just add this minor caution to the above post.

3) minor issue resolved by choosing a generic pc int'l kb model

4) I still rate it a nine.....it beats a corded input device any day
