i-opener keyboard with a mouse?

I'm using the keyboard/mouse splitter with the iopener keyboard and a separate mouse. The mouse doesn't work. Is there a way to disable the integral mouse in the kb so the separate mouse can work?

You probably just need to reverse the mouse and keyboard on the splitter. The IO is wired backwards.

I think that he means that he is using the original I/O M/K on the keyboard part of the splitter and a normal mouse on the mouse part of the splitter. If the keyboard is working, then he most certainly has it set up correctly.
With the splitter that I have, you cant use both the IO m/keyboard and another mouse on the splitter. Since I did not want to open up the keyboard and disable to the mouse, I just use a non I/O keyboard. If you really dont EVER want to use the I/O mouse, then open up the keyboard and disable it. Otherwise, put in some kind of switch to turn it on/off.

Look for the thread "Using original keyboard with PS/2 mouse".

You open up the I-opener keyboard and disconnect the red and gray wires
from the cable connecter. These are the clock and data lines for the
keyboard's "button" mouse.
